F.C.Barcelona

Futbol Club Barcelona, normally known as Barça, is one of the best teams (if not the best) in Europe.
Although F.C.Barcelona has several professional and amateur sports teams (football, basketball, handball, futsal and roller hockey, rugby, athletics, baseball, ...), it is best know for its football team. Founded in 1899 by Joan Gamper, it currently has more than 150.000 members.

Current champion of the Spanish League (la Liga) and the UEFA Champions League.

The Camp Nou is FCBarcelona's main stadium, with a capacity of 98.000 it is one of the biggest and best stadiums in Europe.

Unfortunately that is not enough to allocate all its members, therefore it is quite difficult for newer members to get season tickets although they have preference over non-members when trying to get tickets.

Ticket price

Price depens on the team playing against and the location of the seats:

Teams are divided into different categories (C, D, A, A+). GENERAL are the cheapest seats as they are the highest seats, although there is a decent view. GOAL seats are located behind the goals. Finally LATERAL and TRIBUNA are side stands (no difference at all between them on terms of view) however TRIBUNA is where the president seats so it si more expensive.

Tickets can be obtained at ticket offices at the Nou Camp, or by calling 902 1899 00, at the ServiCaixa ATMs or on the internet at the F.C.B web page.

FCB Museum

It is one of Barcelona's main atractions, named after the former president Josep Lluis Nuñez, it is the most visited museum in Catalunya with over 1.160.000 visits last year. The price of the museum is €7, or €11 including the Camp Nou which I strongly recommend.

The FCB Museum including the Camp Nou tour is highly recommended, I would describe it as "must see".

    Thanks for the suggestion!
    I have update the post with ticket prices.
    Prices start at €18 when playing 'small teams', and increases depending on the team.
    Location is another factor: GENERAL seats are the cheapest as they are the highest seats, although there is a decent view. GOL seats are behind goals. Finally LATERAL and TRIBUNA are side stands (no difference at all between them on terms of view) however TRIBUNA is where the president seats so it is more expensive.
