This section is dedicated to Luton Town FC loyal supporters from abroad. There are thousands of Luton Town fans spread across the globe and a Supporters Group provides an opportunity for fellow fans, within a location or country, to share the highs and lows of following the Hatters, through regular contact via social media, meeting up to watch televised matches or other events and hopefully sharing travel arrangements to visit Kenilworth Road.
If you are a Hatters fan living outside of the UK, we encourage you to join up with fellow fans in your area to form new friendships and improve your supporting experience. To recognise your loyalty, Luton Town Supporters’ Trust will endeavour to reward supporters group members with a number of exclusive benefits.
The best way for people resident abroad to join the Trust is to join online using PayPal. If you do not have a PayPal account you can still use your debit or credit card whilst using the secure PayPal checkout.
If you are interested in joining a supporter group, please find the relevant information below on how to contact the representative from a group in your area.If you are currently running a supporters’ group, please contact our international section so that we can add your details.

Members of the Cape Town Hatters have been supporting Luton since their non-league days. The formal launch of the Supporters’ Club was in 2023 during Luton’s first ever season in the Premier League. There are 12 founding members and the club is looking to expand its reach in Cape Town and the rest of South Africa. If you are interested in joining and being part of the community, please reach out via the Cape Town Hatters Instagram page.
Our supporters’ group was formed in August 2023 with credit due to the Hatters’ promotion to the Premier League, however, a number of our founding members were long fans of the club. The group currently has 92 members, and our collective goal here is to share a platform to watch and cheer for Luton Town, and one day, organize a visit to Kenilworth Road. To grow our online presence, our group has expanded towards other social media platforms like Instagram or Twitter. If you are Chinese, or live in China, we invite you to join our group, you can contact us via any of the above social media or via email.

We are a group of friends from west part of Czech Republic. In 2019 we spent few days in London and we wanted to visit a match of a traditional non premier league team with great atmosphere. In that time was in squad additionally Czech goalkeeper Marek Stech so we decided to visit Hatters. We contacted John and he was so kind to arrange a meeting with Marek before the match directly on a pitch. It was absolutely unbelievable and great experience! The football and atmosphere were amazing and we immediately fell in love. In 2020, because of COVID, were were only able to visit Luton once in February but we are in touch, we see the matches regularly and we try to catch all news. We look forward to being back to see matches live!

He has been supporting Luton since 2011 (he was 12 years old back then), but in 2014, he created the club with the intention of connecting with as many Greek or British supporters living in Greece who also cheered for Luton. They have a presence on social media, specifically on Facebook and Instagram, which they are looking to expand.

Contacts: Paul Antunes
Long-time Hatters Bob Balchin and Tony Hull started the first known Canadian supporters group in 2005 during the Hatters last notable season in the Championship before the ensuing decline through the leagues. Almost ten years on from then, Paul Antunes, a relatively new expat in Toronto at the time, and unbeknown to this original venture, began his own social media initiative using Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp to successfully attract more local supporters to our football club. We’re now delighted to announce that these separate efforts have been combined, and will identify as Luton Town Supporters Canada.
Paul Antunes will head the group from Toronto with the assistance and support of Bob Balchin and many other willing and dedicated volunteers.
If you’re Canadian and/or live in Canada, or if you’re just visiting, get in touch and see how you can connect with our Canadian Hatters network.

In March 2019 we organized a supporter’s trip with the Feyenoord Supporters Union, taking over fifty to watch Luton Town play Rochdale.
We are honoured to have witnessed a club fight back and going up the Leagues. We think Luton Town FC sets an example in both management and strategy for most clubs in this world, including Feyenoord. We do hope we will return as soon as possible, to see Luton play and drink and cheer at our favourite pub The Bricklayers Arms.
Come on you Hatters! Clog the FA and the Football League we are the famous Luton Town.
