Gonna see EnglandvWales and PortugalvAustria


Tickets are absolutely out of this world. Does anyone have some advice on a better way of getting tix? The base seats (cat 3 behind the goal) are about 700$ each.

PS anyone else going?

If you are flying to Europe, surely you can drop some coin for some ducats. YOLO.

France


Probably the last place I'd go to at this current moment.

Regardless, those ticket prices are damn expensive. How much does that compare to World Cup ticket prices?

Not sure, never looked at prices when it was in Rio.


As to France being the last place someone would go, an extremely small bunch of assholes being pieces of shite won't deter me from enjoying my favorite sport. I was in Paris 3 months ago and it was fantastic. The security will be beefed up like crazy.

The England game will be in Lens which is about 45 minutes NE of Paris. A little closer to belgium.

Good for you for having that mentality! I hope you have a great time. I've been wanting to get over to Europe for some soccer for several years now. I went to a Real Madrid game back when I was in middle school and didn't really appreciate it because I still had the, "soccer is for fairies" mentality that my dad instilled in me after making me quit when I was younger

I'm sure you'll have a blast, hopefully you get some decent tickets for a somewhat better price as well.

Be safe!

I believe the quarterfinal in Rio between France and Germany was going for about $700-$800 to start. I would have shelled out if the US was playing.

Same.

If it makes you feel any better it wasn't at the Bernabeau.

Way over face value and good chance they are fake tickets.

You can kiss the big time matches a no go unless you pay way over face value

Try the public viewings for those and then get tickets to matches with lower demand. All the big countries tickets are from the FA's

No my sister owns a travel agency and thats how I get my big chelsea match packages. The tickets will be very secure and hand delivered to the hotel in paris. Used her plenty of times for games. Just looking for a cheaper route, but I dont think any will be that secure.
