Clásico at Spotify Camp Nou sets gate record: €19.1m
On Sunday 25 October, Barça-Real Madrid beat the €16.4m of the May Clásico, and the average ticket price rose 10%.
Barcelona have broken their own ticket revenue record at the Spotify Camp Nou: the Clásico against Real Madrid on Sunday 25 October brought in €19.1 million, well above the €16.4 million of the league meeting in May, according to Mundo Deportivo.
Attendance was slightly lower at 60,055 fans compared with 62,213 five months ago, but higher prices made up the difference. The average ticket sold for €984 excluding VAT, 10% more than last season, and VIP seats averaged €2,727. Season ticket holders filled 86% of the regular capacity.
The club shop also set records, passing €800,000 on two consecutive days, and the capsule collection with rapper Tyler, the Creator, generated the most revenue of any artist collaboration in the shops and online store. Once the stadium is finished with 104,600 seats, the club expects even bigger numbers.
