€31–€72adult, official price, standard league game
✅ Open sale
When: Every 2026-27 home league game is listed on the club's own ticket site (Bestunion, with a queue page) for general sale; season-ticket holders fill much of the ground, so the cheaper end stands (Cervantes, Polideportivo) were already sold out for the November game.
Alavés v Deportivo (21 Nov 2026), club ticket site read 8 Nov 2026: Preferente lateral from EUR 31, Preferente central EUR 35-40, Principal lateral EUR 35-40, Principal central baja from EUR 48, Principal central alta EUR 72. End stands sold out. Prices likely higher for Barça/Real Madrid.
Buy on the official Alavés site📅 Add Alavés's games and sale reminders to your calendar (a feed that updates itself).
The labels: ✅ Open sale = ordinary league games reach general sale · 🟡 Rules vary = members go first, some games reach general sale · 💳 Members only = a club card or membership is effectively needed · 🪪 = named tickets. They describe the club's usual league games, not one particular match: derbies and big games can be much harder.
Only buy from the club or its official partners. Unofficial resale sites charge far more and tickets can be cancelled at the gate. Prices are a guide and change by opponent; the club's site has the real price.
Stadium tours
No game that weekend? Most big grounds run tours and museum visits most days, including the dressing rooms and the tunnel.
