Buy Real Madrid vs Alaves Tickets on 1BoxOffice and compare Santiago Bernabeu listings by stand, seating tier, delivery method and price before matchday demand tightens. Alaves' recent Bernabeu visits have been heavily weighted towards Madrid, but the 3-2 meeting in September 2024 showed why this fixture still carries late-match tension, goal expectation and useful value for buyers who want the Bernabeu without derby pricing.

The match at Real Madrid Tickets is usually priced towards the lower end of the Madrid home calendar. Demand comes from neutrals chasing goal-heavy matches, international visitors and a smaller travelling support from the Basque Country. Alaves sit in the visitor bracket where hospitality can remain broader than it does for headline weekends, which gives late corporate buyers a more realistic route into premium seating.
Real Madrid vs Alaves tickets stay in consistent resale circulation through matchday week, although the better-positioned longside seats still move first. The pricing spread between upper and lower tiers is wide, so buyers can compare view, comfort and delivery type without the sharper pressure attached to Barcelona, Atletico Madrid or other top-tier fixtures. Upper-tier longside seats are often the practical starting point for first-time visitors who want the stadium experience while keeping the budget controlled.
Demand for Alaves Tickets at the Bernabeu is fed less by rivalry than by goal expectation, broadcast profile and fixture timing. Madrid has scored three or more in every recent Bernabeu league meeting covered by this page's dataset, while the combined goal yield has stayed above three per game. Travelling Alaves support is smaller than the away following attached to derby or European-chasing clubs, which can leave broader circulation across home areas and make the fixture a practical target for first-time Bernabeu visitors.
Fixture date movement is the main variable. LaLiga confirms broadcast slots roughly two weeks before matchday, so the kick-off window can shift to Friday evening, Saturday afternoon or Sunday night. That flexibility affects both travel cost and pricing curves. Saturday 9 pm kick-offs tend to price slightly higher on hospitality tiers due to dinner-service demand, while Sunday early slots typically attract families and lower-tier longside demand.
A secondary demand driver is Madrid's European calendar. When a Tuesday or Wednesday Champions League tie sits in the same week, some hospitality buyers may reassess weekend plans and release Alaves seats back into the market. That can create short-term movement on premium inventory through the Monday and Tuesday window, which is often when better-value listings appear for this fixture.
Real Madrid releases the majority of home match tickets through members-only ballots and the club's own site. Madridistas and season-ticket holders get early access, and general sale windows are limited for non-member buyers. Even on a lower-demand fixture like Alaves, non-members often find that the better seating areas have already cleared before the general window opens.
Verified resale is the practical route for anyone without membership. 1BoxOffice lists seats released by ticket holders at the point they decide not to attend. The range usually covers every tier, and the Alaves fixture can offer broader availability across upper-tier, longside standard and premium sections than higher-demand ties. Club matchday information changes week to week, so cross-checking the resale market allows buyers to confirm realistic options before committing.
For buyers choosing between regular seating and hospitality, Alaves is one of the easier Madrid home fixtures to compare because the price gaps are usually clearer than they are for derbies. Upper-tier longside seats suit travellers who want the full pitch shape and the Bernabeu atmosphere without paying for proximity. Lower-tier central seats suit visitors who care more about player detail, bench-side movement and the speed of Madrid's front line.
Five factors shape the resale price for this fixture: seat location within the stadium, overall demand at the point of listing, fixture timing within the broadcast slot, the competition context (whether the match is near a title decision or a Champions League tie) and the hospitality tier chosen. The Alaves fixture usually prices below many LaLiga home ties, and the spread between tiers is notably wide, which favours buyers who can wait for specific listings to surface.
| Ticket Type | Resale Price Range | Best For | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Upper tier / less central | £55 – £125 | Budget-conscious buyers and first-time visitors | Broad availability on this fixture |
| Longside standard | £100 – £210 | Balanced sightline and atmosphere | Good value against bigger ties |
| Lower tier / central | £170 – £360+ | Close-range viewing of the action | Less discounted as matchday approaches |
| Premium seating | £330 – £690+ | Comfort, reserved parking access, upgraded service | Includes premium padded seats |
| Hospitality / VIP | £780 – £2,100+ | Corporate or special-occasion buyers | Multiple tiers from sports-bar to fine dining |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift closer to the match.
The Bernabeu holds just over 78,000 across three tiers. Choosing a seating area comes down to atmosphere, sightline, cost and hospitality access. The Santiago Bernabeu seating plan shows the four-sided bowl structure and helps buyers compare longside, corner and goal-end views before choosing a block.
The Santiago Bernabeu tickets page groups wider venue listings by area, which is useful when comparing this fixture with other Real Madrid home dates. For Alaves, longside upper usually gives a clear balance of tactical view and price, while lower longside seats suit buyers who want Madrid's attacking movement close up.
| Area | What It Suits | Pricing Bracket | General Guidance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Longside lower | Close viewing, strong atmosphere | Lower-mid to mid | Moves early for this fixture |
| Longside upper | Better tactical view | Lower | Good availability late week |
| Behind the goal | Passionate home-support areas | Lower-mid | Limited elevation on front rows |
| Premium seats | Padded seats, lounge access | Upper-mid to high | Includes food and drink options |
| Hospitality | Corporate and special occasions | High | Full matchday package |
| Supporter Type | Suggested Approach |
|---|---|
| Home fans | Any section outside the away allocation; longside upper for a strong budget-to-view balance |
| Away supporters | Designated visiting-fan allocation in the 3rd and 4th stands of the north end, with access through Tower D |
| Neutral buyers | Longside upper or central lower; avoid immediate edge of the away allocation |
Away-fan entry at the Bernabeu is routed through Tower D at the north end of the stadium. Visiting supporters are normally placed in the 3rd and 4th stands of the north end, with a separate allocation, dedicated facilities and security checks before entry.
Neutral buyers who prefer a louder home atmosphere should sit towards the halfway line in the lower or middle tiers rather than along the goal lines. Alaves supporters should use the travelling-fan route issued by their club and should avoid buying home-area listings if they plan to wear away colours.
Supporters travelling from Vitoria-Gasteiz should leave extra time around Tower D because visiting-fan ticket checks can begin before the main stadium flow is fully open. Buyers holding home-area tickets should not assume they can move between sectors once inside, because the Bernabeu uses controlled circulation on matchdays. Neutral visitors who want to avoid the travelling allocation should choose longside areas or the opposite end rather than corner blocks close to the north-end separation line.
| Hospitality Option | Typical Buyer | Main Appeal |
|---|---|---|
| Sports-bar lounge | Casual corporate groups | Relaxed food, drink and screen coverage before and after the game |
| Premium padded seats | Couples and mid-tier corporate | Upgraded seating with private access routes |
| Fine-dining hospitality | Client entertaining and special occasions | Table-service dinner with wine list and a served seat in premium blocks |
| Tunnel Club-style | High-tier corporate and luxury buyers | Access closer to pitch-level walkways and premium catering |
Hospitality descriptions mirror the club's hospitality pages. Lower-demand fixtures like Alaves can retain hospitality availability closer to matchday than derby weekends, which is useful for corporate buyers who need a late premium option without the derby premium attached.
| Delivery Type | What to Check |
|---|---|
| Mobile ticket | Confirm the listing supports mobile delivery for your device and check transfer timing |
| E-ticket / PDF | Verify print quality and entry scanning notes before leaving the hotel |
| Courier / hotel collection | Allow a 24 to 48 hour window and confirm the collection address during booking |
| Paper ticket | Check the delivery window is compatible with your arrival date |
Always read listing notes carefully before purchase, bring a valid photo ID and charge the phone for mobile entry. Screens fade on cold nights, so keep a battery pack on hand for evening kick-offs.

1BoxOffice is a verified secondary ticket marketplace established in 2006 with a 150% money-back guarantee covering every purchase. Listings are checked for validity before the order ships, and buyer support runs across the matchday window to resolve any delivery or entry issues that come up late in the week.
International buyers get the same delivery options as Spanish residents. Mobile entry covers most stands, and paper tickets or courier collection at the hotel are available when the listing supports it. Delivery windows tighten within 72 hours of kick-off, so overseas buyers booking late should favour mobile or e-ticket listings to avoid shipping risk. Digital delivery clears customs or postal risk entirely, which is why most international buyers default to mobile and email options in the final week.
Seats-together requests are fulfilled when supported by the original listing. Groups of three or more should confirm seat continuity before purchase rather than rely on the default quantity filter. Fixture dates can shift by 24 to 48 hours because LaLiga confirms broadcast slots roughly two weeks before matchday, so international travellers should hold flexible flights and refundable accommodation until the final kick-off time is confirmed.
Madrid Barajas airport sits roughly 30 minutes from the stadium by taxi or via Metro Line 8 with a change at Nuevos Ministerios. Hotel districts around Paseo de la Castellana, Plaza de Castilla and Nuevos Ministerios keep travellers within walking distance or a single Metro stop from the ground. Matchday transport holds up well at the Bernabeu because Line 10 stops directly under the stadium, and returning fans typically clear the area inside 40 to 60 minutes after the final whistle.
Deportivo Alaves sit among the smaller clubs in Spanish top-flight history, but their Bernabeu visits have produced a clear modern pattern. The Vitoria-Gasteiz side have had several LaLiga spells across the past decade, including the run from 2016/17 to 2021/22 and the current top-flight phase that began after promotion in 2023.
The current phase started with promotion under Luis Garcia Plaza, who guided Alaves back through the play-offs in June 2023. The club later moved through a managerial change to Eduardo Coudet in December 2024 and then to Quique Sanchez Flores in March 2026. That timeline matters because the fixture should not be framed as a single Luis Garcia era through 2025/26.
Their Bernabeu record across recent LaLiga meetings is uncompromising for visiting buyers. Across six league matches in the current stadium dataset, Alaves have conceded 21 goals and scored only two, with every match ending in a Madrid win. The 2016/17 promotion season produced the first recent visit, the 2021/22 and 2024/25 visits confirmed the pattern and the goal return has stayed high throughout.
The modern Bernabeu phase began on 2 April 2017, when Madrid won 3-0 through Karim Benzema, Isco and Nacho. Zinedine Zidane's side went on to win LaLiga that season and the Champions League. Alaves, by contrast, reached the Copa del Rey final in 2017, which remains the club's deepest cup run in the modern era.
The February 2018 return saw Madrid win 4-0 with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring twice, Gareth Bale adding a third, and Benzema finishing with a penalty that Ronaldo had been awarded but handed over. That match came during Ronaldo's final full Bernabeu season and fits the pattern of Madrid's elite forwards turning this fixture into a high-output home date.
Three subsequent visits produced a similar pattern. A 3-0 win on 3 February 2019 featured Benzema, Vinicius Junior and Mariano Diaz, with Vinicius scoring early in the second half from a Marco Asensio assist. The 19 February 2022 meeting was a 3-0 win with Asensio, Vinicius and Benzema each scoring in the final 27 minutes as Madrid moved clear at the top of a title race they ultimately won.
The 14 May 2024 fixture delivered the biggest Bernabeu scoreline in this dataset. Madrid won 5-0 through Jude Bellingham, Vinicius twice, Fede Valverde and Arda Guler. The match was played on the night Madrid lifted the LaLiga trophy in front of their own fans, which gives that result extra commercial weight for supporters comparing historic match atmospheres.
The most recent Bernabeu league meeting, on 24 September 2024, produced the tightest scoreline of the modern sequence. Real Madrid led 3-0 through Lucas Vazquez, Kylian Mbappe and Rodrygo before Alaves made the final minutes uncomfortable through late goals from Carlos Benavidez and Kike Garcia. Madrid held on 3-2, but the closing spell showed that Alaves can still create late pressure at the Bernabeu.
That September 2024 match is worth flagging for buyers because it changed the tone of the fixture without changing the historical balance. The visitors pressed higher late in the game, found two quick goals and forced Madrid to manage the final minutes seriously. Pricing on subsequent Alaves fixtures can hold slightly firmer in the opening listing window as a result, though the tier still sits well below the headline derbies.
Historically, Alaves were founded in 1921 and first reached the top flight in 1930. Their breakthrough modern LaLiga moment came in 1999/2000 when they finished sixth and qualified for the UEFA Cup. They went on to reach the 2001 final, losing 5-4 to Liverpool in a match still referenced whenever the club's European history is discussed.
Since then, Alaves have moved between the top two Spanish divisions, with their most durable recent top-flight stretch being the 2016 to 2022 run. The current cycle is less about a long-established rivalry with Madrid and more about a smaller club trying to manage the scale of the Bernabeu. For buyers, that makes the fixture a lower-pressure way to see Madrid at home while still carrying a recent example of late drama.
What separates this fixture from Madrid's other LaLiga home ties is the clean home-dominant record combined with a consistently high goal yield. Alaves have the tactical profile to create moments, as the September 2024 result demonstrated, but their finishing efficiency at the Bernabeu has remained low across the modern phase.
For buyers, this produces a fixture where the match experience is reliably lively but the resale pricing curve sits well below the headline weekends. That is the rare combination many first-time Bernabeu visitors are searching for: Madrid at home, goal expectation and a more manageable ticket market than the derby calendar.

Figures are calculated from the match-by-match data below. The dataset is shorter than older Madrid rivalries because Alaves have had spells outside LaLiga since 2006, so the table focuses on recent Bernabeu league meetings only.
| Date | Fixture | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 24 Sep 2024 | Real Madrid vs Alaves | 3-2 |
| 14 May 2024 | Real Madrid vs Alaves | 5-0 |

The table uses recent Bernabeu league meetings only. Atletico were outside LaLiga for several seasons before this run, which is why the venue dataset is shorter than Madrid's records against long-term top-flight rivals.
Scores are cross-checked against ESPN, Real Madrid match reports and Sports Mole head-to-head records. Cup fixtures and pandemic-era matches away from the Bernabeu are excluded, so the table reflects the actual venue experience buyers are evaluating.
Because Madrid has won all six matches in this dataset, the table is less about rivalry balance and more about buyer expectation. It shows why Alaves can be a practical value fixture, with a high home-goal pattern and a lower pricing tier than Madrid's biggest league dates.
Yes. Resale inventory on verified marketplaces lists tickets released by members and season-ticket holders who cannot attend. The Alaves fixture typically retains broader non-member availability than top-tier derby matches.
International buyers can purchase in any currency supported at checkout. Delivery favours mobile or e-ticket listings close to matchday, while courier collection works well for buyers arriving several days in advance.
Seat location, fixture timing, overall demand at listing, hospitality tier and proximity to a Champions League tie are the five main factors. Alaves fixtures price lower than derby weekends across most seating tiers.
Upper-tier longside and upper-tier corner seats consistently offer one of the better-value routes. Buying in even-numbered groups also tends to reduce the per-ticket price against single or odd-numbered listings.
Yes. Hospitality packages run from sports-bar lounges through premium padded seats to fine-dining experiences and pitch-level tunnel access. Availability usually holds closer to matchday on lower-demand fixtures like Alaves.
Typical inclusions are a reserved seat, pre-match and half-time food and drink service, access to a private lounge and event staff support throughout the matchday window. Higher tiers include full dinner service and wine.
VIP options include premium seat locations, private-entry routes, upgraded food and drink, parking access at some tiers and a dedicated service team. Specifics vary by listing, so read the package notes before purchase.
Yes. Resale inventory typically covers every seating tier for this fixture, from upper-tier longside through to hospitality. Listings often refresh in the week before matchday.
The North Stand, East Stand and West Stand are the main home areas. The visiting allocation is separated from home areas on matchday, with the rest of the stadium populated by home supporters outside that footprint.
Away supporters are normally placed in the 3rd and 4th stands of the north end, with access through Tower D. The visiting allocation is separated from home areas by stadium staff, security barriers and police controls.
Wearing any colours is permitted in most home sections, though visible away colours directly alongside home-only blocks are better left covered until entry to the away allocation. Stadium stewards can also advise on the day.
No. Away-allocation seats are for travelling supporters only. The ticketing system enforces the split, and stewards may refuse entry to buyers visibly supporting the home side in the away block.
Alaves receive a travelling-fan allocation through their own ticketing channels. Most of those seats are issued to registered Alaves supporters, with limited release to neutral sellers on the resale market.
Yes, when the listing supports the requested quantity. Buyers looking for groups of three or more should confirm seat continuity with the listing notes or use the contiguous-seat filter when available.
Mobile, e-ticket, courier collection and paper delivery are the main formats. Digital delivery dominates in the final week before matchday, while courier collection works for buyers in Madrid from several days out.
Some listings support instant delivery. Look for the label on the listing before purchase and confirm compatibility with your device for mobile entry.
Two to three weeks before kick-off typically offers a better balance of selection and price. Waiting until the final 48 hours can produce lower prices, but a reduced choice of seat blocks.
Small bags are permitted through stadium security, and larger bags may be restricted or subject to search. Plan for tighter checks on evening kick-offs and keep valuables on your person where possible.
Yes. Children are permitted, and family-friendly seating areas are available in most stands. Buyers should confirm age-based pricing rules on the listing before purchase.
Metro Line 10 stops at Santiago Bernabeu station directly under the stadium. Several Madrid bus routes serve the area, and taxi pick-up zones operate north of the ground. From Barajas airport, Metro Line 8 connects via Nuevos Ministerios with a single change.
