FC Barcelona hereby announces that, for the UEFA Champions League group stage match against Eintracht Frankfurt to be played at the Spotify Camp Nou, the club will allocate all available seats exclusively to members.

This decision has been taken to safeguard the safety of Barça supporters and to prevent a repeat of the situation experienced in April 2022, when the majority of spectators in the stadium were not supporters of the home team. With this measure, the club grants absolute priority to its members, who are the backbone of the institution, and ensures that the stadium will be a space of celebration and exclusive support for Barça fans.

It should be recalled that yesterday the presale period for members opened, and only those who can prove their member status will be able to purchase tickets for this match. This measure reinforces the club’s commitment to rewarding the loyalty of our membership and preventing resale and fraud, ensuring that tickets reach Barça supporters.

The success of this operation depends on the responsibility of all purchasers. In this regard, any ticket found to be in the hands of an Eintracht Frankfurt supporter in the home section will be checked in order to identify the member involved in the acquisition and subsequent sale of the ticket to away supporters, as this endangers the safety and wellbeing of other FC Barcelona members and supporters.

Heightened security measures:

· Increased security presence at every gate and in the stands to manage incidents and eject supporters where necessary

· Name and visual checks of supporters wearing Eintracht Frankfurt symbols or clothing, to detect signs of illegal ticket acquisition

· Coordination with Eintracht Frankfurt, the Guardia Urbana and the Mossos d’Esquadra to prevent rival supporters from gathering around the Spotify Camp Nou and to deter ticket resale.

· Daily analysis of ticket sales in order to identify possible patterns of fraudulent activity, taking the necessary measures to avoid any breach of supporter safety.

Finally, please note:

· If the traceability of ticket purchases and their final destination reveals fraudulent behaviour, the case will be referred to the Disciplinary Committee so that the appropriate measures can be taken against those responsible.

· Ticket prices will range from €59 to €199, with a 35% discount applied for all members.

FC Barcelona thanks all members for their understanding and cooperation, and encourages them to enjoy this major match with passion, pride, and respect for our colours.
