TIcket price record for El Clasico: 879 euros if you want to get in
If you want to go see El Clasico, it's going to cost more than ever before. The average for the tickets up for 're-sale' is around 879 euros.
The prices if you want to go see one of the biggest fixtures in world football, are forever increasing. Now the tickets for the el Clasico clash are going for a staggering 659 euros, compared to an average of 474 euros three years ago. That is a 46% increase in just three years.
These 're-sale' tickets aren't even taken by the locals. Only 21.3% of 're-sale' tickets are bought from within Spain, with a vast majority of 78.7% being bought abroad.
It is actually illegal to sell these tickets on the black market for this price, and many clubs are trying to combat this illegal activity, especially when it comes to the re-selling of season tickets.
It's crazy the amounts people are willing to pay just to see some of Europe's elites.
