How to Buy Champions League Tickets
Regular Matches (League Phase & Knockouts)
The home club sells all tickets through their normal channels. If you want to attend a Champions League group or knockout match, follow the home team's usual ticket-buying process - membership, general sale windows, and authorized resellers all apply exactly as they do for domestic matches.
UEFA mandates a minimum 5% of stadium capacity for away fans in a segregated section. Away tickets are distributed through the visiting club, not sold publicly.
For the 2025-26 season, UEFA has capped away ticket prices at 50 EUR.
Since tickets are sold through the home club, we've built detailed matchday guides for many Champions League teams below. For each upcoming fixture, you'll find links to tickets, our team guide (with transport, pubs, and stadium tips), and nearby hotels.
Hospitality is via the home club's allocation - you'll be seated with home supporters (no away colors or kits). Official UEFA hospitality via P1 Travel.
The Final - Puskas Arena, Budapest, Hungary
UEFA sells final tickets directly via lottery at uefa.com/tickets. This is NOT first-come-first-served - it is a random draw after the application window closes.
For the 2026 final, 39,000 of the 61,400 seats are allocated to fans. Each finalist club receives 17,200 tickets. Approximately 4,600 tickets are available via the public lottery (maximum 2 per person).
Prices range from 70 EUR (Fans First, via club allocation) to 950 EUR (Category 1). Hospitality packages start from 5,900 EUR.
All tickets are mobile-only via the UEFA Mobile Tickets app. The purchaser's ticket is non-transferable, while the second ticket can be transferred once.
The public lottery application window closed on 19 March 2026. Notifications are expected mid-April 2026.
UEFA runs a random lottery, not first-come-first-served. Check for open application windows.

Planning Your Trip to Budapest
Flights & Trains
Getting to Budapest
Budapest is well connected by rail from Vienna (2.5 hrs), Bratislava (1 hr), and Prague (7 hrs). Keleti and Kelenfold are the main international stations. Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport is 30 minutes from the city centre by shuttle or taxi.
Transfers & Car Hire
Getting Around Budapest
Puskas Arena is directly on the M2 metro line (Puskas Ferenc Stadion stop), so driving to the match is unnecessary. Pre-book your airport transfer if you want a stress-free arrival - airport taxis can have long queues on busy match weekends. A rental car is useful if you plan to explore the countryside or cross into Austria or Slovakia.
Trip Protection
Protect Your Investment
