Moscow ticket sales start on Thursday

Wednesday 27 February 2008-

 

'Gratitude'

The final of European club football's most prestigious competition will take place at the Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on Wednesday 21 May at 20.45CET (22.45 local time) – and the countdown began with a ceremony in the Russian capital last Thursday, attended by dignitaries from UEFA, the Football Union of Russia (RFS) and the City of Moscow. "I would like to express our sincere gratitude both to the City of Moscow and to the Football Union of Russia for their partnership with UEFA in the organisation of such a prestigious event as the UEFA Champions League final," said UEFA Executive Committee member Mathieu Sprengers at the ceremony.

 

'Global appeal'

"As you know, preparing any event requires huge dedication and skill. But when it comes to the UEFA Champions League final, this requires enormous levels of commitment, professionalism and resilience. I am glad to say that all these skills have, so far, been met. It goes without saying that the UEFA Champions League final has a particularly significant meaning and a strong global appeal in sporting terms. It represents UEFA's flagship club competition, and is followed by millions of football fans. Now, however, it is increasingly becoming a global property, popular with fans all over the world." RFS president Vitali Mutko added: "We are exactly three months away from the final, and my thanks go to the UEFA Executive Committee for their trust. I also thank everyone for the professional and committed preparation work that is taking place."

 

Public sales process

The international general public ticket sales process begins on Thursday at 12.00CET and ends on 19 March at 12.00CET. The application process will be undertaken exclusively via uefa.com. Each applicant has to complete fully the online application form. The allocation will be decided by lottery (ballot), and every valid application will enter the ballot, independently of the time of submission within the application period. Each person would be entitled to a maximum of two tickets.

 

Price categories

With the submission of the application, the applicant accepts the ticketing terms and conditions. Ticket price categories available to the general public are: Price Category 1 (centrally positioned) – €200; Price Category 2 (mainly in the corners) – €140; Price Category 3 (next to Category 2 seats, behind goals) – €80. The administrative fee is €10 if you order tickets from within Russia, €30 from within Europe and €40 from outside Europe. Payment can be made by credit card only (Eurocard/MasterCard, Visa). Applicants will be informed by email on 2 April at the latest whether they have been successful or not, and tickets will be dispatched from mid-April by secure mailing.

 

Distribution of tickets

The net capacity of the Luzhniki Stadium for the UEFA Champions League final will be 69,500. A total of 75 per cent of the tickets are reserved for the general public and the supporters of the two finalists. Each finalist club is able to take up to 21,000 tickets and distribute these directly to its supporters, while 10,500 tickets are available for sale to fans worldwide via uefa.com.

 

Do not deal with touts

All applicants will be bound by the ticketing terms and conditions, and action will be taken in cases of infringement. Online applications will be checked to ensure that anyone banned from attending football matches is unsuccessful in any attempt to purchase tickets. UEFA underlines that no tickets are being distributed via agencies or brokers. UEFA also encourages fans not to be lured into deals with touts who not only demand exorbitant prices, but are often not in possession of the tickets they purport to have for sale. Terms and conditions will be available on uefa.com.
