Atletico's VIP Packages and Where They SitWhat the Opponent Does to the PriceCatering Windows, Entry Times and the Parking TrapClub, Authorised Agency or ResaleEntry Prices Across Spain's Big Three StadiumsWhere It Falls ShortFAQsFor Atletico against Deportivo on 24 October 2026, club VIP prices started at €290 (about £245) on the Neptuno sale screen. For Barcelona on 8 November, a separate price band on the club's seating map reached €1,540 (about £1,290), although its VIP classification and package inclusions were not confirmed. Atletico Madrid hospitality prices vary sharply by opponent, package and seller. Neptuno Hospitality & Events, the club's own premium arm, sells ten named areas, most of them in the Lateral Oeste, and authorised agencies repackage some of the same seats from €119 (about £100).
Article Summary: VIP matchday packages at Atletico Madrid are sold by the club through Neptuno Hospitality & Events and by authorised agencies, and prices vary substantially by fixture and package. For Deportivo in October 2026, club VIP seats started at €290, while P1 Travel advertised selected lower-demand La Liga packages from €119. P1's Longside package was €549 for Bayern and €699 for Barcelona, although other Champions League fixtures can be considerably cheaper.
- Atletico's sale screen for the Deportivo match on 24 October 2026 showed VIP seats from €290 in the Lateral Oeste, €360 in the Lateral Este and €460 in the Fondo Sur, read on 15 October 2026.
- P1 Travel listed its Longside Hospitality Experience in block 210 at €699 and its Bench Experience in block 104 at €899 for Atletico v Barcelona on 8 November 2026, read on 26 October 2026.
- The same P1 Travel Longside package cost €119 for Valencia, Racing and Espanyol in October 2026, so the Barcelona price is more than five times the floor.
- The Tunnel Club by Riyadh Air opens its lounge two hours before kick-off and keeps it open until 45 minutes after the final whistle, according to the Neptuno product page.
- Atletico reported 5,571 VIP season tickets sold for 2026/27 as a provisional figure expected to rise, and private boxes are reported as fully subscribed, which leaves single-match VIP seats as the route for visitors.
The home derby is already gone, Atletico having beaten Real Madrid 2-1 at the Metropolitano on 20 September 2026, so Barcelona on 8 November and Bayern Munich on 3 November are the two home dates where premium stock is tightest. General Atletico Madrid tickets for those games are a different market, since members (socios) receive priority booking windows, followed by public sales where tickets remain available, and additional seats appear when season-ticket holders (abonados) release their allocations. Hospitality is the one category the club still sells to the public in volume.
Atletico's VIP Packages and Where They Sit
Neptuno's product pages describe ten premium areas for 2026/27 but show no prices; those appear only inside the ticketing engine, which is why several guides wrongly claim Atletico publishes no hospitality pricing at all. The table pairs each product with its location and the most recent price evidence, from the Neptuno sale screen as read by the independent Atletico fan site Cholismo Lab on 15 October 2026 and from agency listings checked on 26 October 2026.
| Package | Where you sit | What is included | Price evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| VIP Pre-Match Experience | Lateral Oeste, main stand | VIP seat; the club page describes pre-match catering for a 23-match package, single-match inclusions unconfirmed | From €290 (about £245), Deportivo, October 2026, per Cholismo Lab |
| Lateral Este and Fondo Sur VIP seats | East stand or south end | VIP seat with lounge access, less central view | From €360 east and €460 south, Deportivo, October 2026 |
| Hall of Music lounges | Lateral Oeste | Catering from 90 minutes before to about 40 minutes after | €390 and €440 (about £325 and £370), Deportivo, October 2026 |
| VIP Lounge Retiro | Sectors beside the Presidential Box | Climate-controlled lounge, live music, direct street access | €490 (about £410), Deportivo, October 2026 |
| Superbox (listed as Superpalco, Sala Puerta del Sol) | Beside the Presidential Box | Heated terrace bar, reserved table, catering before, at half-time and after; inclusions subject to confirmation, as the sale-screen listing's match to the Puerta del Sol product page is unconfirmed | €580 (about £485) per seat, Deportivo, October 2026 |
| VIP Boxes, Puerta del Sol | Lateral Oeste | Open-air boxes for five to 12 guests with private TV and cloakroom | Box price shown only at checkout |
| VIP Lounge 1903 and Manzanares | Centre of the middle tier and central Lateral Oeste | Individual seats, waiter service, screens, catering until 45 minutes after | Price shown only at checkout; sold out for Deportivo |
| VIP Clubs: Movistar, Ramón Bilbao, Mahou, Red Bull | Ring of private boxes, corners and south side | Premium seat, free movement around the box ring, live music | Price shown only at checkout |
| Tunnel Club by Riyadh Air | Centre of the lower tier | Padded armchair, lounge from two hours before, view of players walking from the dressing rooms | Sold out for the Deportivo match when checked on 15 October 2026 |
| Private Boxes | Box ring | Up to 18 guests, own gourmet menu before, during and after | Season product, reported fully subscribed for 2026/27 |
| Longside Hospitality Experience (P1 Travel) | Block 210, middle tier | Lounge, open bar, buffet with hot and cold dishes, hosts, VIP entrance | €119 to €699 (about £100 to £585) by opponent, October 2026 |
| Bench Experience (P1 Travel) | Block 104, first five rows behind the dugouts | Lounge access and drinks; no buffet or open bar listed | €199 to €899 (about £165 to £755) by opponent, October 2026 |
Two cautions. The club's page for the Pre-Match Experience describes catering for a 23-match bundle, so the €290 single-match seat should not be assumed to carry the same benefits until Neptuno confirms them. And the Bench Experience lists drinks but no food, so it can cost €80 to €110 more than the Longside package for an ordinary league fixture and does not explicitly advertise food.
What the Opponent Does to the Price
Atletico prices every La Liga fixture by match category and so do its agencies. P1 Travel's Longside package uses the same block 210 seating category and advertised hospitality inclusions across fixtures, yet it cost €119 for Valencia, Racing Santander and Espanyol, €149 for Real Betis, €549 for Bayern Munich and €699 for Barcelona when read in October 2026, a spread of almost six to one across one product.
| Fixture (2026/27) | Club price, from (VIP where confirmed) | P1 Longside, block 210 | P1 Bench, block 104 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deportivo, 24 October | €290 (about £245) | Not offered | €269 (about £225) |
| Valencia, Racing, Espanyol | Not checked | €119 (about £100) | €199 to €269 |
| Bayern Munich, 3 November | Not published | €549 (about £460) | Not listed |
| Barcelona, 8 November, 21:00 | €530 to €1,540 estimated from an unlabelled band on the club price map, Cholismo Lab, September 2026 | €699 (about £585) | €899 (about £755) |
Prices can also rise for high-demand knockout ties: okdiario reported club VIP prices of €440 to €1,540 for the Champions League quarter-final against Barcelona in April 2026. Tax treatment varies by package: Spain's standard VAT rate is 21% and the club quotes its VIP season seats plus VAT, so check the final total including tax and booking fees before comparing a club figure with an agency price.
Catering Windows, Entry Times and the Parking Trap
Most Neptuno lounge pages state catering from 90 minutes before kick-off until 45 minutes after the final whistle, with the Tunnel Club opening two hours before. The club's VIP FAQ separately says guests may enter 75 minutes before kick-off, and the two figures do not reconcile, so confirm your entrance time with the seller before travelling and take the ticket's own instructions as final. All VIP tickets come with host and waiter service, with menus pitched by category: the Clubs and the Superbox run fuller catering than the Pre-Match seats.
What is not included catches people out. The Riyadh Air Metropolitano has 4,000 parking spaces, 1,000 inside and 3,000 outside, but the Neptuno FAQ restricts every one to season-ticket holders carrying a club access card. A single-match VIP buyer should plan on Metro Line 7, which stops at Estadio Metropolitano a minute from the gates and takes about 26 minutes from Sol. Neptuno's current FAQ instructs direct online buyers to print their tickets; agency delivery methods differ, so follow the instructions supplied with your booking.

Club, Authorised Agency or Resale
Three routes exist and they are not interchangeable. The club sells through Neptuno Hospitality & Events online, by phone on +34 91 600 35 00 and at the VIP offices on Avenida de Luis Aragones. The club's most recent authorised agencies notice, published for 2025/26, names P1 Travel, VB Global Group, AJ Tickets and Hellotickets, and TheTicketingBusiness reported on 30 July 2026 that Travel Connection had joined with seats directly behind the home dugout. P1 Travel's Barcelona listing carries a restriction buyers should check for every fixture: no away fans allowed.
Resale marketplaces sit on top of both. Listings seen in October 2026 ahead of the Manchester United league-phase game started at €689 for VIP hospitality on one marketplace; that is a different fixture and package from the club prices above, so compare like with like before treating any listing as a mark-up. Resale marketplaces offer another option when the Barcelona or Bayern allocations sell out, and even then the lounge name and block number tell you more than the word "hospitality" does, because some listings labelled that way are a tourist package with a stadium tour and no food. Check the block against the Riyadh Air Metropolitano seating plan before you pay.
Entry Prices Across Spain's Big Three Stadiums
Atletico had the lowest advertised entry price of the big three Spanish clubs for a lounge seat inside the stadium. The comparison uses the lowest lounge price each club or its authorised agent showed for a low-category league match in October 2026; the packages are not identical, so read it as a comparison of advertised entry prices rather than of equivalent experiences.
| Club | Entry lounge price, low-category match | Top fixture floor |
|---|---|---|
| Atletico Madrid | €119 (P1 Longside) or €290 (club), October 2026 | €699 to €899 for Barcelona, October 2026 |
| Real Madrid | €325 for Sevilla on the club site, October 2026 | €650 VIP floor for the 4 April 2027 derby |
| FC Barcelona | €450 VIP Premium for Alaves, read 22 October 2026 | €2,400 for the Clasico on 25 October 2026 |
Our Real Madrid hospitality guide and Barcelona hospitality guide set out where those figures come from. On those advertised figures an Atletico club VIP seat sits close to Real Madrid's off-site Matchday Premium product and well below Barcelona's entry VIP tier, while the stadium, with 96% of seats under the roof, gives up nothing on atmosphere.
Where It Falls Short
One individual experience is worth reading before booking. A TripAdvisor review from November 2023 describes a €300 package for the Celtic match in which guests were held on an outdoor concourse with patio heaters and poor food; a single review does not establish a pattern, but it shows what an open-air product can mean in winter. The fix is in the booking: choose a named indoor lounge such as Retiro, Manzanares, 1903 or one of the four Clubs; avoid anything described as an open-air space unless the weather suits it. Cholismo Lab also found that Neptuno's buy buttons stopped at the Fenerbahçe match on 27 January 2027, so spring fixtures were not available through the checked Neptuno sales screen in mid-October.
FAQs
1. Do children need their own VIP ticket at the Metropolitano?
-
Every person entering an Atletico VIP area needs their own ticket, including infants, according to the Neptuno Hospitality FAQ.
2. Is there a dress code in the Atletico VIP areas?
-
Only the Presidential Box has formal dress rules; the other VIP areas have none, although the club notes that sportswear, sleeveless shirts and open-toed shoes are uncommon.
3. Can a VIP ticket be given to someone else?
-
Atletico VIP tickets are non-nominal (not tied to a named person), so the club confirms they can be bought as a gift and used by whoever holds the ticket.
4. Can away supporters buy VIP seats for Atletico's Champions League games?
-
Restrictions depend on the fixture, the agency and the ticket category: P1 Travel marks its Atletico packages as no away fans allowed and some agencies decline sales to citizens of the visiting club's country for European ties, so check the listing's conditions before buying.
5. Is there hospitality for the 2027 Champions League final at the Metropolitano?
-
The final on 5 June 2027 is UEFA's event, so its hospitality programme is sold by UEFA and its appointed partners rather than through Neptuno or Atletico.
For matches with limited availability, 1BoxOffice offers Atletico Madrid seats from verified sellers through its resale marketplace. Check the seating block and the exact hospitality inclusions before purchasing, as lounge access and catering are not guaranteed with every premium listing. Orders are backed by the 1BoxOffice 150% Money Back Guarantee, subject to its terms and conditions.
