season ticket singular

Morphology

season + ticket

The meaning 'a ticket allowing attendance over a season' is directly and transparently derivable from combining 'season' (a period or series of events) with 'ticket' (document granting admission). This compositional pattern is common across languages (e.g. French 'abonnement saisonnier', Spanish 'abono de temporada'), so a B1 learner who knows both constituents would readily infer the MWE meaning.

Etymology

Season ticket comes from the idea of a season as a set of shows or games and a ticket for the whole period. Buying one meant you could go to every event in that season and save money, so today it means 'a ticket for many events or journeys, usually cheaper'.
