Securing Real Betis tickets for the 2026 season is a must for any football fan visiting Seville, even while the club is temporarily playing at Estadio de La Cartuja. As the team competes in La Liga and European competitions, match days remain the most vibrant display of local passion in the city.
Important 2026 update: Real Betis is currently playing all home matches at Estadio de La Cartuja (The Olympic Stadium) while the Benito Villamarín undergoes major renovations.
- Tickets: Harder to get via official channels without a membership.
- Safe alternative: StubHub is the most reliable secondary market for tourists.
- Atmosphere: Different from the old stadium; choosing the right tier is crucial.
Because the club has moved from its traditional home at the Benito Villamarín during renovations, the ticketing process and stadium logistics have changed significantly. This guide breaks down how to navigate the 2026 seating chart and how to buy safely without being a club member.
Watching Betis live is one of the most authentic football experiences in Spain.
Are there Real Betis matches during your visit?
Yes — Real Betis play home matches roughly every two weeks during the La Liga season (August to May), as well as occasional Copa del Rey and European fixtures.
For the 2025–2026 season, all home games are being played at Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville while Benito Villamarín undergoes renovation.
If you’re planning a trip to Seville, here are the next confirmed home matches at Estadio de La Cartuja.
| Date (2026) | Time (CET) | Opponent | Competition | Ticket Demand |
| Sat, Apr 4 | 18:30 | RCD Espanyol | La Liga (J30) | Moderate |
| Thu, Apr 16 | 21:00 | SC Braga | Europa League (R8) | High |
| Sun, Apr 26 | TBD* | Real Madrid | La Liga (J32) | Extreme |
| Sun, May 3 | TBD* | Real Oviedo | La Liga (J34) | Low |

Sandra’s 2026 scheduling tip: Kickoff times in Spain are often only “confirmed” by La Liga 2–3 weeks in advance. If a match is listed as “Sunday,” it could still be moved to Saturday evening or Monday night for television. Always check your email 48 hours before the game for the final time.
Where to Buy Real Betis Tickets in 2026
There are two main ways to buy Real Betis tickets for the 2025–2026 season: through the club’s official sales channels or via a secondary marketplace. Because Real Betis are currently playing home matches at Estadio de La Cartuja during the renovation of Benito Villamarín, availability and seating dynamics are slightly different from previous seasons.
| Feature | Official Real Betis Website | StubHub (Secondary Market) |
| Availability | 7–10 days before kickoff | Weeks or months in advance |
| Membership | Often requires Soy Bético status | No membership required |
| Seating Choice | Limited to what’s left | Pick specific tiers at La Cartuja |
| Best For | Local fans & budget travelers | International visitors & groups |
Official Real Betis tickets (membership priority)
The club sells tickets directly through their portal, but for 2026, it remains a challenge for visitors. Most seats are released first to Soy Bético members. If any remain, they go on general sale only a few days before the match. If you are planning your trip weeks in advance, relying on the official site is a gamble.
For high-demand matches — especially European fixtures or the Seville derby — general availability can be limited.
Additional things to consider:
- Tickets often go on sale 7–10 days before the match.
- The checkout process is primarily in Spanish.
- Availability for popular games can disappear quickly once public sales open.
If you’re flexible with dates and comfortable navigating the official system, this can be a good option. But if you’re visiting Seville for only a few days, relying on late general sales can be risky.
Buying Real Betis Tickets on StubHub (Recommended for Visitors)
If you want the peace of mind of having your tickets booked before you fly, StubHub is the best alternative.
- Early access: You don’t have to wait for the “7-day window.”
- Tourist friendly: The interface is in English and they offer the FanProtect Guarantee, which is crucial since tickets are now mobile-transfer (Digital).
- Seat selection: It is much easier to see which tier of La Cartuja you are buying.
Being able to choose your seat is particularly useful at La Cartuja, as the stadium’s Olympic layout (with a running track around the pitch) means that some tiers offer a noticeably better match experience than others. [See my seating tips for La Cartuja below]
If your travel dates are fixed and you want peace of mind before arriving in Seville, this is usually the most practical solution.

What is the best option to get your Real Betis tickets?
If you’re thinking about going to a Betis game, there are four ways to get your hands on tickets. Let me walk you through them so you can pick the best option.
The easiest way? Buy them online
No doubt about it – getting your Real Betis tickets online is the way to go.
You can book them well in advance, skip the long lines, and avoid any awkward “lost in translation” moments (because, let’s be real, not all staff members speak English).
Buying from the official Betis website
If you’re planning to buy directly from Betis’ official site, just a heads-up – it’s not always the smoothest experience.
For La Liga games, tickets usually don’t go on sale until about a week before the match, and club members get first dibs. So if you’re hoping to snag a seat early, this might not be the best strategy.
For Conference League and Copa del Rey matches, things work a little differently. Each club handles its own ticket sales, and season ticket holders and members get priority. Only whatever’s left is made available to the public.
The trick here? The second those tickets go live, don’t think twice – just grab them!
Beware of ticket scalpers (reventas)
As you approach the Estadio de La Cartuja on match day, you’ll likely see men loitering near the bus stops or the stadium gates whispering “Entradas” or “Tickets.” I strongly advise you to avoid them, especially for the 2026 season.
Here is why:
- The digital trap: Most Real Betis tickets are now mobile-only or PDF e-tickets. Scalpers often sell printed “screenshots” or duplicate PDFs to multiple people. Since only the first person to scan the code gets in, you could be left at the turnstile with a worthless piece of paper.
- Strict security at La Cartuja: Because La Cartuja is an Olympic stadium with specific access points (unlike the old neighborhood-based Villamarín), security and police checks are much tighter. In 2026, we have already seen instances where fans with “unofficial” or manipulated tickets were denied entry or faced long delays.
- Fake “invitations”: A common scam in Seville involves selling copies of old “Official Invitations” (from previous finals or events) that look real but are completely invalid for current La Liga matches.
The bottom line: If the official site is sold out, use a protected platform like StubHub. Their FanProtect Guarantee means if a ticket is fake, they find you a replacement or refund you. With a street scalper, your money is gone the moment you walk away.
How to buy Real Betis tickets on StubHub (step-by-step)
Buying on the secondary market is very straightforward, but since Real Betis uses Mobile Transfer for the 2026 season at La Cartuja, there is one critical step at the end.
Step-by-step guide explaining how visitors can buy Real Betis tickets for matches at Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville.
Total Time: 15 minutes
Step 1: Set up your account
Before you can grab your tickets, you’ll need to create an account.
It’s quick, easy, and totally worth it! Having an account lets you keep track of your purchases, so you’ll always know what’s going on with your tickets.
How to sign up:
1. Go to the StubHub International website.
2. Click “Sign In” at the top.
3. Fill in your name, email, and password. Or save time by signing up with Facebook, Google, or Apple.
4. Hit “Create account”, and you’re all set!
Step 2: Find Betis’ next matches
Want to see when and where they’re playing? Just type “Real Betis” into the search bar. If you have a specific city in mind, add that too.
Not sure which game to pick? Use the filters under your profile icon to sort by city and date. That way, you can find a match that fits your plans perfectly.
Step 3: Choose your tickets
Once you’re on the match’s page, you’ll see all the available ticket options. The listings update constantly, so if you spot a good deal, don’t wait… Someone else might grab it first!
Found the perfect tickets? Click “Buy now”, and you’re one step closer to game day.
Step 4: Check out and confirm
Fill in your personal details and complete the payment. Once the purchase is complete, you’ll receive an immediate confirmation email from StubHub but this is not your ticket.
1. A few days before the match (or sometimes within hours), you’ll receive a separate email from the ticket provider (e.g., Real Betis or a partner app).
2. You must click “Accept Transfer.”
3. Your tickets will now live in your phone’s digital wallet or the specified app. Don‘t print them—simply scan the QR code at the La Cartuja turnstiles.
Sandra’s 2026 tip: When you buy on StubHub, you might see a “Temporary Email” mention in your account. Don’t worry—this is a security feature StubHub uses to ensure the digital transfer from the seller to you is 100% verified and protected by their FanProtect Guarantee.
Best seats at La Cartuja for a Real Betis match
Choosing where to sit at La Cartuja is very different from the Benito Villamarín.
La Cartuja was originally built as an Olympic stadium, which means there is a running track separating the stands from the pitch. As a result, some areas feel noticeably further from the action.
Here’s how to choose wisely.
For the best atmosphere pick: Gol Sur (Lower Tier)
If you want to experience the legendary Betis passion, head for the Gol Sur Grada Baja. This is where the most fervent supporters (Béticos) congregate.
- Choose lower-tier seats behind one of the goals.
- The vibe is non-stop singing, flags, and drums.
Sandra’s tip: Aim for the sides of the lower tier. You’ll be close enough to the fans to feel the energy, but you won’t have your view blocked by giant flags for 90 minutes.
For the best view pick: Preferencia or Fondo (Lower Tier)
For the most balanced view of the entire pitch, choose Preferencia (West Stand) or Fondo (East Stand), specifically in the Lower Tier (Grada Baja).
Why? These seats are located along the sidelines. Because of the running track, being in the Lower Tier is essential to feeling part of the game. If you go too high in this stadium, the players start to look like ants.
- Choose lower central sections along the sidelines.
- Mid-height rows often provide the best balance between perspective and proximity.
- Avoid the furthest upper corners, which can feel distant due to the stadium’s layout.
For the budget pick: First Amphitheater
If the lower tiers are sold out or out of your price range, the Primer Anfiteatro is your best secondary option.
The view? You get a great tactical bird’s-eye view of the formations.
For families or a calmer experience pick: Tribuna or Preferencia
- Opt for central sideline areas: Lower sections of Tribuna or Preferencia, especially in the central blocks.
- Avoid sections directly next to the most animated supporter groups.
- Choose seats slightly elevated for better overall visibility.
La Cartuja is generally safe and well-organised, but crowd intensity increases significantly during major fixtures.
What to avoid
- The Second Amphitheater (Segundo Anfiteatro). These seats are extremely high up and far back. Unless it is a massive derby and you just “need to be in the building,” I recommend skipping the top tier entirely.
- Last-minute random seat selection without checking the section map.
- Assuming all seats offer the same experience — at La Cartuja, they don’t.
Check available seating areas for upcoming matches.
How hard is it to get Real Betis tickets in 2026?
In 2026, the difficulty of getting tickets depends entirely on when you buy. Because Real Betis now uses a multi-phase system for home matches at La Cartuja, many tourists get confused and think a match is “Sold Out” when it actually hasn’t been fully released yet.
The 2026 phase system:
- Phase 1 (early access): Tickets go on sale weeks in advance, but you cannot pick your specific seat. You choose a category (e.g., Preferencia or Gol), and the club assigns you a seat later.
- Phase 2 (seat selection): This only opens 24 to 48 hours before kickoff. This is when you can see the interactive map and pick a specific row.
Difficulty rating by match type
| Match Type | Difficulty | Advice for Tourists |
| “El Gran Derbi” (vs. Sevilla) | Very Hard | Buy on StubHub months in advance. Official general public tickets almost never exist. |
| Big Three (Real Madrid, Barça, Atleti) | Hard | Don’t wait for Phase 2. Secure your category in Phase 1 or use StubHub. |
| Standard La Liga (e.g., Celta, Espanyol) | Easy | You can usually find tickets on the official site even on matchday. |
| European Nights (Conference/Europa) | Medium | High demand for big name opponents. Buy as soon as the draw is confirmed. |
Sandra’s expert verdict: For an international traveler like you, the official Phase 2 (picking your own seat) is too stressful. It requires you to be on your phone checking the site while you should be enjoying Seville. I recommend buying via StubHub if you want to know exactly where you’re sitting before you even leave home.
Matchday logistics: Getting to La Cartuja in 2026
The Estadio de La Cartuja is isolated from the city center. For the 2025–2027 seasons, Seville has implemented a specific Matchday Mobility Plan to get 70,000 fans to the island safely.
The TUSSAM shuttles (best option)
The city bus network (TUSSAM) operates special services on matchdays and adds 40+ extra buses for every home game.
- Pre-match: Lines C1, C2, and 2 are reinforced 2 hours before kickoff. They connect the city center (Prado, Triana, Santa Justa) directly to the stadium.
- The Blas Infante lanzadera: This is the secret weapon. It’s a direct shuttle between the Blas Infante Metro Station and the stadium.
- Post-match (free!): After the final whistle, the shuttles departing toward Barqueta and Blas Infante are free of charge to clear the crowds quickly.
Buses become crowded 60–90 minutes before kick-off, so arriving early is recommended.
The Renfe Cercanías (fastest from Santa Justa)
If you’re coming from the main train station, take the C-2 Line.
- Frequency: It normally runs every hour, but on matchdays, Renfe doubles the service.
- Drop-off: The Estadio Olímpico station is just a 5-minute walk to the gates.
Taxis and Uber
Don’t expect a taxi to drop you at the door. Police block the main roads 90 minutes before the game.
Taxis will drop you at the Barqueta Bridge or Calle Américo Vespucio. Expect a 10-minute walk from there.
Sandra’s transport tip: Avoid walking across the Alamillo Bridge immediately after a big match. It becomes a massive bottleneck. Instead, stay for a drink at one of the food trucks near the stadium for 20 minutes to let the first wave of crowds clear.
Frequently Asked Questions About Real Betis Tickets (2026)
Where does Real Betis play in 2026?
Real Betis are playing their home matches at Estadio de La Cartuja in Seville during the 2025–2027 renovation of their usual stadium, Benito Villamarín. All La Liga and European home fixtures are currently hosted at La Cartuja.
Do Real Betis matches usually sell out?
Most regular La Liga matches do not fully sell out at La Cartuja, which has a large capacity. However, games against top Spanish clubs, European fixtures, and the Seville derby can sell quickly — especially in central lower-tier sections.
How does the Phase 1 and Phase 2 ticket system work?
Ticket sales are often divided into two phases:
– Phase 1 prioritizes Soy Bético members.
– Phase 2 opens remaining seats to the general public.
For high-demand matches, many of the best sections may be allocated during Phase 1, limiting general-sale availability.

What are the best seats at La Cartuja for a Betis match?
For atmosphere, choose lower-tier seats in Gol Norte or Gol Sur.
For the best overall view, central blocks in Tribuna Baja or Preferencia Baja offer the strongest balance between proximity and perspective.
Because La Cartuja has a running track, upper tiers can feel noticeably further from the pitch.
How early should I buy Real Betis tickets?
If you’re visiting Seville for a short stay, it’s advisable to secure tickets as soon as they become available. Waiting for general sale can be risky for high-profile matches, particularly if your travel dates are fixed.
How do I get to La Cartuja for a Real Betis match?
The most common options are TUSSAM bus routes (including C1 and C2 circular lines), taxi, or a combination of train and walking.
What time should I arrive at La Cartuja?
I recommend arriving at the stadium at least 90 minutes before kickoff. Because La Cartuja is more isolated than the old stadium, the security checks and the walk from the bus drops can take longer. Gates typically open 2 hours before the match starts.
Do I need to print my Real Betis tickets?
No. For the 2025-2027 seasons at La Cartuja, Real Betis uses mobile-entry tickets. You can simply show the QR code on your phone. Ensure your phone is fully charged, as there are no charging stations at the stadium gates.
