Valencia Tickets

Los Ches have a different approach to selling tickets compared to many other sides in La Liga. For league matches, you can buy Valencia tickets on the club’s official website months in advance.

The league fixture list is published in chunks on the ticketing portal (4 through 14 in the summer, and then 14 through 19 later in the year) and you can click through to check availability for your chosen match.

This system differs from many other Primera División clubs. For example, local rivals Villarreal, as well as the likes of Real Madrid and Athletic Bilbao, only make tickets available within two weeks of the match.

This is usually because La Liga has always been quite late in confirming the exact date and time of fixtures. In 2024/25 the date and time are confirmed about a month before the match, so this is always something to keep in mind if you’re booking Valencia CF match tickets early.

Yes, the Mestalla Stadium does sell out for many Valencia CF games. The number of fans in the stadium does not always correspond to the amount of Valencia football tickets sold, as the attendance rates of season ticket holders can be surprisingly low.

In 2023/24 the average attendance at the Mestalla Stadium was 43,640, working out at a healthy 87.8% of the stadium’s 49,430 capacity. These figures are especially impressive for a club that has struggled to finish above mid-table in La Liga since the 2010s.

One of the fixtures that drums up huge demand for Valencia tickets is when Real Madrid CF show up at Estadio Mestalla. Along with community/regional opponents Villarreal CF, Valencia maintain a few simmering rivalries around La Liga. Surely the largest of these is Real Madrid, and it’s almost impossible to get tickets on the primary market for this match.

Fortunately, Ticket Compare will always have availability for Valencia vs Real Madrid tickets, even if the match is sold out.

Looking to find cheap Valencia CF match tickets for your next visit to Mestalla? Here are some practical tips to help you secure the best deals:

• Plan Ahead: Purchasing your Valencia CF tickets well in advance can save you money. Early buyers often get the best prices before demand surges closer to matchday.
• Choose Less High-Profile Matches: Tickets for matches against lower-tier opponents, like Gertafe or Alavés, tend to be more affordable compared to marquee games against Real Madrid or Barcelona. Flexibility on the match can help you find cheaper Valencia tickets.
• Take Advantage of Last-Minute Deals: If you’re comfortable with a bit of risk, waiting until just before the match might work in your favor. Sellers on secondary platforms may lower prices to ensure their tickets sell.
• Buy Single Seats: If you don’t mind sitting apart from your group, single Valencia football tickets are often more affordable than grouped seating. This strategy can help you snag a bargain.
• Consider Shortside or Upper-Tier Seats: Seats behind the goal (Grada Norte or Grada Sur) or in the upper tiers of Estadio Mestalla are typically less expensive than premium seating options on the sidelines. These areas still offer a fantastic atmosphere and a great matchday experience.

In 2024/25 a Valencia CF season ticket costs between €285 and €1,725. The cheapest tickets are high in the South Stand (Gol Sur) and North Stand (Gol Norte), while the most expensive are in the Grandstand (Tribuna Central) section, in the west stand along Avenida Suecia.

Note that Copa del Rey tickets or UEFA Europa League tickets (if applicable) are not included in the price.

Prices rose between 5% and 10% on the previous season, although loyal season ticket holders who met attendance bonuses by attending at least 80% of matches only saw a 2.5% rise. With an average price of around €400, a Valencia season ticket is reasonable compared to other La Liga ticket prices.

This hike also marked the first price increase at Valencia since 2019, despite a 17.5% rise in the rate of interest for Valencia during the same period.

Currently, over 10,000 season ticket holders were born between 1995 and 2000, and 14% of all season ticket holders are minors. In the next section we’ll highlight the benefits of being a member (socio) at Valencia, which you need to become a season ticket holder.

There’s a difference between being a season ticket holder (abonado) and a paid-up member (socio VCF) at Valencia CF, although it should be pointed out again that you need to be a member to be able to buy a season ticket.

Now, being a member at Valencia isn’t the same as being a member at a club like FC Barcelona or Real Madrid, where you’re essentially a stakeholder.

At Valencia CF it’s much less formal. For €50 a season you can enjoy a variety of benefits that bring you closer to the club, although none of them make it easier to buy Valencia CF tickets, unless you’re a long-term fan with ‘seniority’. These are the main benefits of being a Valencia member or “socio”:

• Discount on Ticket Purchases: Save on tickets for matches and events.
• Priority in Ticket Purchases: Get early access to certain Valencia CF match tickets before general sales.
• A one-off coupon for €25 for a La Liga match at the Mestalla.
• Membership Number and Seniority: Gain recognition for your membership and its duration, making you eligible for discounts in future.
• Newsletter and Exclusive Content: Stay updated with exclusive news and updates from Valencia CF.
• Exclusive Raffles and Contests: Participate in member-only raffles and contests.
• Antiquity Awards: Celebrate milestones with special awards for 25 and 50 years of membership.
• Discounts at VCF Official Stores: Receive discounts at Valencia CF official stores and the online store.
• €25 Gift Voucher for a La Liga Match: Redeem a gift voucher for a selected match.
• Discount on Mestalla Forever Tour: Enjoy reduced prices for the Mestalla Forever Tour.

Again, apart from the discounts on Valencia match tickets, all of these advantages also apply to season ticket holders at Valencia.

• Bus: Mestalla Stadium is well-served by Valencia’s extensive bus network. Nearby stops include Amadeo de Saboya Street (line 32), Reyes Prosper Street (line 71), and Aragón Avenue (lines 10, 12, 80, 41, 79). Blasco Ibáñez Avenue also has numerous options with lines 10, 29, 30, 31, 71, 79, 81, 89, and 90. These options ensure convenient access from various parts of the city.
• Metro: The stadium is easily accessible by metro via Line 5 and Line 7, stopping at Aragón Station, or Line 3 and Line 9 at Facultats-Manuel Broseta Station. Both stations are a short walk from Estadio Mestalla, making the metro a quick and efficient option.
• Walking: Estadio Mestalla is approximately a 20-minute walk from Calle Colón, one of Valencia’s central and busiest streets. Strolling through Valencia’s vibrant cityscape on your way to the match is an enjoyable option for those staying in the city center.
• Plan Ahead: On matchdays, public transport and surrounding areas can become crowded, particularly close to kickoff. Arrive early to soak up the pre-match atmosphere and avoid any last-minute rush.

Valencia CF’s noisiest fans can be found in the Grada de Animación, or singing section, at the Mestalla. Also known as the Curva Nord, this is located in the lower tier behind the goals in the North Stand (Gol Norte).

There are usually between 1,500 and 2,000 fans in the Grada de Animación, all of whom are special season ticket holders who have to adhere to certain rules. Here are a few:

• Fans need to be between 16 and 30 years old
• They all need to be members (socios) of the club
• Attend at least 80% of matches at the Mestalla in the previous season
• Be ready to cheer, sing and stay on your feet for 90 minutes every match

For atmosphere it’s a good idea to be close to the Grada de Animación in the North Stand (Gol Norte), even if it may not be possible to get a seat there.

If you want to experience one of the steepest gradients of any large stadium in the world then you have to get a seat behind the goals in the North Stand (Gol Norte) or South Stand (Gol Sur). A match at the top of the stand in Gol Gran alto or Gol Xicotet alto is something that you won’t soon forget.

If you want comfort with your Valencia CF tickets then the Grandstand (Tribuna) on the west side of the stadium is the place to be. This is the only part of the stadium to have a roof, and also faces east, which is helpful for daytime games if you don’t want the sun in your eyes.

Visiting fans tickets for the Mestalla Stadium will be in the north-east corner of the ground. The section is in the upper two tiers of the North Stand (Gold Norte), and the tiers are Gol Xicotet bajo (lower) and Gol Xicotet alto (upper). The exact sectors are 430 to 433 in Xicotet Bajo, and 527 to 529 in Xicotet alto.

Finally, you can access this part of the stadium via gate (puerta) N15 for Xicotet Bajo and N16 for Xicotet alto.
