You can certainly buy tickets for Barca games via the website (think its a link to a ticketmaster type thing) but depending on the game you could be split up if more than a two of you. I'd imagine the espanyol site would have something similar. Here is the ticketing section of their website but afaikthey only release tickets 10 days before each league match.

Espanyol tickets can be bought at the gate. Ground holds 50000 or so; average crowd is 15000. They're one of the few clubs I know who are building a new, smaller, ground.

Espanyol are moving to a new stadium on 2nd Aug, it's called the Nou Sarria, and is in "El Prat" region, right next to the airport. It's got 40,500 capacity, I dont think tickets would be a massive problem (I've seen them a few times in their old stadium) - but I would suggest emailing this address:

Remember that games can be played on saturday or Sunday, and they're only confirmed the week before

Espnayol have zero presence in the city, and tickets won't seel out

They don't even sellout the Barca game.

You should have no problem. Better to go to the stadium a couple of days beforehand if you can though.

Not all ATMs, just specific ones. They're much larger than normal ATMs and are usually only in banks

Nakamura (formerly of Celtic) should be playing for Espanyol!!

**Valencia Hoop** · 19/07/2009, 9:39 AM

I think with the buzz of the new stadium and Galacticos Mk II that Espanyol - Madrid WILL sell out, even with rip-off ticket prices.

I was thinking of making a trip over to a Barca game. What are the odds of being able to get a ticket for the Real Madrid game at the end of November?? Am I just day-dreaming that I'll be able to get tickets for this game!!

I'm no expert, but, I think you should be able to get tickets to any of Barca's home league matches all season apart from the Real game. These are always sold out as far as I know.

I looked into a tour company, but they're really expensive!!! Would love to go to this game

Tickets for the Real madrid game sell out within a couple of days of going on sale to members only. There is never a public sale of tickets

**IsMiseSean** · 12/08/2009, 6:47 PM

Does anyone know any sites that sell tickets to Barca games? Mainly the Real game!!
