Next Sunday (10), Barcelona and Real Madrid face off at Spotify Camp Nou at 4 p.m. (Brasília time) in a match valid for the 35th round of La Liga.
El Clásico could secure the 29th Spanish title for the Culés, who, with 88 points, need only a draw against their biggest rival (77 points) to be declared champions.
And, according to the newspaper Mundo Deportivo, with no “regular” tickets left for the clásico, only VIP tickets are still available for the potential title-deciding match.
Still according to the publication, VIP tickets range from 1,750 euros (around R$ 10,175, according to the current exchange rate) to 12,500 euros (approximately R$ 72,675), depending on the area of the stadium.
Seats in the presidential box and in the "players' zone," overlooking the tunnel leading to the teams' dressing rooms, cost significantly more.
According to Mundo Deportivo, during the Camp Nou renovations, the VIP box was expanded from 147 to 296 seats, 50 of them being VIP seats with unrestricted access to the anteroom, where countless personalities have already been present, including club executives, politicians, athletes, and celebrities from various fields.
And this "insane" increase in ticket prices is not only because it is El Clásico, one of the most iconic matches in the world, or even because of the possibility of the 2025/26 title.
That is because Barcelona have never won the Spanish Championship "over" Real Madrid — in other words, in a match that mathematically secured the title.
In fact, the only time one team "saw" its biggest rival become champion in the clásico was in the 1931/32 season, when the Merengues won the first Spanish title in their history by drawing 2-2 at Les Corts (the stadium that preceded Camp Nou and the Culés' second home, demolished in 1966).
