Going to games abroad

[boy1985]

Anyone know a good website to get tickets for European matches?

Been to watch Barcelona at Camp Nou a few times but wanna try and get to San Siro, Bernabeu etc at some point.

I can't imagine you'll have problems getting tickets in Italy.

I might be able to help with San Siro tickets - for all but the biggest games, they seem pretty available.

Barring the really big games, the San Siro isn't going to sell out, and you can buy tickets on the day. Just don't count on anyone in the ticket booth speaking English. It's best to take a pen and a bit of paper and write down where you want to sit.

Spanish clubs have an annoying habit of not putting tickets on general sale until about 3 days before kick-off, but again, typically, unless it's a big game, you should be able to get in on the day.

eBay is also an option for tickets. I bought a ticket for a 2nd division title decider at Cologne a few years back. It's a slight bit awkward as you have to go on that country's eBay (e.g. http://www.eBay.de rather then eBay.co.uk) and it will be in a foreign language, and you may have to deal with the seller in a different language (babelfish, comical as it may be, can just about do the job).

Any number of ticket websites for the places you mention, just Google what you want. Tickets for Inter v Bari later this month are about 50 Euros.


Hmm my keyboard doesn't appear to have a "Euro" button.

Cheers. Barcelona tickets are available pretty far in advance on lastminute.com so thats always been easy to plan.

Unless its been in a package deal out of my price range I can never seen to find anything for Milan or Madrid. Would like to get in a few Bundasliga games too.

I can't remember which one it is, but there was an article about a German stadium that had a beer train running around the front on the stand.

Usually plenty of spares available on the day at small clubs like Milan, Barca and Real.

Bundesliga games are pretty easy to buy online, so no point taking a risk.

Trying to buy off touts in Russia can be interesting.

joking aside, a lot of that in Spain is due to their system of membership. It's not the same as a season ticket. A member just has the right to buy a ticket at a reduced price. Many sell their tickets if they don't want to go.

As for Italy, I think their fans are just completely against the whole idea of corporate football, of which being "forced" to buy a season ticket is very much part.

anyone ever want tickets in Argentina, then contact me and I'll sort you out

[ayjaydee]

I can recommend Lisbon as a destination combining a bit of football with a great city. Quality of the football isn't top drawer but both the Benfica & Sporting stadiums are good and easy to get tickets (unless, of course, they are playing each other).

Would you be able to get tickets for the river plate end at boca later in the season? I heard theres a planned " off" between the boys and i was hoping of getting stuck in.

I was in Going Places yesterday and it appears that they do trips to Madrid and Milan with match tickets included.

HTH.

PS Going to see Feyenoord and also Apeldoorn later on this year.
