    The celtic end is the top tier that stretches along one side of the pitch from one net to another. the celtic section is behind the south goal- goal sud, i bought in section 418, which is just beside the celtic end.
    When we ordered our tickets we were told to bring r passport and make sure it wasnt british. As we r all Irish we are fine, but is it worth buying them and on the day find out you cant receive them with British passport. Just be careful people.

    so is the general idea that we are able to buy tickets in the barca end or not?

    Also does anyone know when the st holders will be told if they are succesful in ballot?

    cheers

    For everyone going- You jammy sods.
    Word of warning.
    If you are in Barcelona Airport keep an eye on your belongings.
    Groups of thieves are on the prowl.
    One guy i know put his bag down at his feet to get out his passport from his jacket and was distracted by one person and another just nicked his bag with a laptop and his wallet in it.

    The police are useless.

    Here are contact details for the embassy if needed.

    Avenida Diagonal, 477, 13a planta
    08036, Barcelona

    It costs 127 euros just to get an emergency passport valid only for the trip home.

    From the airport to the Consulate it costs about 30-40 euros 1 way.

    Takes about 2 hours once you are at consulate for them to make you your passport.

    Does anyone have any idea how many tickets celtic will get for barca game. Have heard of lots of people buying tickets in the home section including myself, although im still hoping im lucky enough to get one from celtic. Also how many will celtic bring to this game. I was in rennes last year and think we had around 3k at the game but can see at least double going to barca.

    My pal who speaks Spanish phoned the Barcelona ticket office twice today and they confirmed that tickets could be picked up from 11am on the day of the game as long as you provided your credit card used to pay and your ID. She asked if a British passport would be accepted and was told there would be no problem.

    I have my flights and hotel booked, but I need 2 match tickets seated together as I am taking my daughter! The official Barca site doesnt seem to have any together.
    Anyone any suggestions? I also would prefer to be as close to possible to other Celts, just so we can make a bit of noise!

    As someone living in Barca I know that sitting with the home fans won't be a problem. Purchasing from the official website is easily done and tickets can be printed from the booking offices in BCN on or before match days.

    To the above poster, you'll be hard pressed to find two seats together. I booked my tickets almost as soon as they went on sale (in home end seats) and still couldn't get two that were together. Same is the case for other considerably small la liga games which I have booked. You might have to be contented with being in the same section as whoever you're with unless you strike lucky.

    If you are waiting to buy your tickets out here you can also purchase them from a particular ATM.

    Hopefully I'll see some of you there :icon_mrgreen: will be going to one of my regular Irish bars beforehand to get fuelled up!
