How to safely sell your ticket for the Europa League Final
- The average price for a ticket to the match is at £550
- The fan-to-fan ticket marketplace: how does it work?
Although the 2016 Europa League final will take place in a stadium smaller than that of the previous 6 finals, the match between Liverpool and Villarreal is getting more attention than ever with fans from across the globe willing to ante up a good share of money for a ticket.
On Ticketbis, an online ticket marketplace, fans can safely sell their tickets to users anywhere in the world thanks to the platform’s extensive global presence. Individuals list their tickets at no cost and users accessing the website in over 45 countries will be able to view the tickets immediately until only hours before the game begins. Sellers don’t even have to leave the comfort of their homes as the platform takes care of both payment and delivery processes.
According to the figures, the average ticket price for this year’s Europa League final is £550, 158% more than the average over the previous 4 years (£213). So far, football fans from more than 30 nationalities have already purchased tickets for the match. Germans and Americans are the top international buyers.
Until now, the most expensive ticket was sold for £2,300 for VIP seats. Ander Michelena, CEO of Ticketbis, says "I'm always surprised to see the prices that some fans pay for a ticket. Although these tend to be overseas fans, who are willing to make the trip to attend events. In this case, the most expensive ticket was bought by a Russian fan. This is the furthest an English team has gotten in an international competition this season and you can certainly tell by looking at ticket prices on the secondary market. Spanish supporters are also pushing hard for tickets, spending over £700, on average”.
