Paris Saint-Germain faces Arsenal in the Champions League final

Paris Saint-Germain, the defending champion, takes on Arsenal in the final of the most prestigious European football competition.

Tickets for the Champions League final in Budapest on May 30 will go on sale on Friday, May 8, according to information obtained by “ICI Paris Île-de-France” from Paris Saint-Germain. The Parisian club will prioritize its most loyal supporters, as it did for last year’s final.

About 17,200 tickets are reserved for Parisians, 800 less than last year, due to a slightly smaller stadium, explained UEFA. The Puskás Ferenc Stadium in Budapest, Hungary only has 70,000 seats, compared to over 75,000 at the Allianz Arena in Munich.

Starting Friday, the most loyal supporters will receive a ticket offer at 70 euros in the supporters’ section. To be part of this first wave of tickets, fans must meet specific criteria: being a longtime season ticket holder, attending games regularly, and traveling for away games during the season. Those eligible can only purchase one ticket each. The Parisian club has 36,000 season ticket holders.

Additional tickets will be available in other sections, with prices set by UEFA ranging from 180 to 950 euros. Fans can purchase two tickets per person for these seats. After the initial ticket sale on Friday, a second and third wave will be released. Once selected by the club, fans will be invited to purchase their tickets through the UEFA ticket platform using a unique code.

According to “ICI Paris Île-de-France,” PSG plans to organize giant screen viewings and a big celebration at Parc des Princes, similar to last year’s final in Munich.
