On Wednesday, 28 May, the Tarczynski Arena in Wroclaw will play host as Real Betis and Chelsea battle it out in the Europa Conference League final.
Given the relatively young age of the competition, having only been introduced to the football calendar in 2021, it is perhaps unsurprising to learn that neither of these two sides have reached the Europa Conference League final before.
That being said, the occasion is perhaps slightly bigger for Real Betis, who, while their opponents have previously won the Champions League twice, have never reached a European final before this year.
For those who wish to attend the match, here is everything you need to know about getting your hands on those coveted tickets.
How to get Europa Conference League final tickets: Buying guide
Tickets from the competing clubs
Both Chelsea and Real Betis have received an allocation of approximately 12,500 for this fixture and will distribute these to their supporters in their own way.
Chelsea, for example, are opening its sales window phase on Tuesday, 13 May, with season ticket holders receiving priority. The number of loyalty points needed to qualify will decrease with each sales window, which has eight in total.
Real Betis will likely employ a similar process.
Tickets have been priced as follows:
Unobstructed views
- Category 1 €190
- Category 2 €140
- Category 3 €45
- Fans First €25
- Ambulant €25
- Wheelchair €25
Obstructed views

Tickets through UEFA ballots
For neutral supporters who were keen to attend the match, the main avenue was to apply for tickets via the UEFA open ballot system.
Fans could apply for up to four tickets. However, the application phase for these ballots closed on 11 April, and all successful supporters should have been notified.
Hospitality tickets
Unfortunately, all hospitality tickets for this fixture appear to have sold out and are currently unavailable on UEFA's official hospitality ticket portal.
It is unlikely that these will be made available again ahead of matchday, but we do recommend regularly checking the ticket portal in case this changes.

Europa Conference League tickets: Alternative options
Suppose none of the methods above have been fruitful. In that case, one remaining option for supporters desperate to get their hands on Europa Conference League final tickets is the third-party resale markets.
These websites often have a large collection of tickets for most fixtures, albeit at extremely inflated prices compared to what would be considered face value. Two such websites are as follows:
At the time of writing, Livefootballtickets currently have a limited number of tickets available for this game, the cheapest of which is a mind-boggling £450.
The main concern with such sites is the authenticity of the tickets being sold. While many provide their own respective guarantees, you can never be too careful. If purchasing tickets through this method, we recommend you be diligent and always proceed with caution.
Whichever way you decide to secure your Europa Conference League final tickets for this match, we hope you have an enjoyable matchday experience at the Tarczynski Arena.
