Women’s Football Women’s Champions League final a sell-out

Barcelona's Ingrid Syrstad Engen (centre) and team-mates celebrate after the Uefa Women's Champions League semi-final, second leg against Chelsea at the Camp Nou in Barcelona, Spain, Thursday April 27, 2023

NEXT month’s Women’s Champions League final between Barcelona and Wolfsburg in Eindhoven has sold out, Uefa announced today.

With over 34,100 tickets having been issued, the June 3 fixture at the PSV Stadion is set to command a new record attendance for a women’s match in the Netherlands.

The current record is the 30,640 that watched the Dutch national team play Australia at the same ground in 2019.

It will be the first time the final of the competition has sold out since it was rebranded as the Women’s Champions League in 2009/10.

Uefa’s managing director of women’s football Nadine Kessler said: “This is the first time we have fully sold out a Women’s Champions League final. And that’s a few weeks in advance, which is just another sign that we have reached a new level.

“The amount of fans who wish to travel with their team has risen enormously too. Each team has picked up an allocation of more than 4,500 for their own supporters — far more than ever before.

“It’s going to be an amazing occasion for everyone, whether in the stadium or in front of the TV.”
