Fla Fest Libertadores Final Tickets Reach R$ 200 but Maracanã Remains Unfilled
The recent Copa Libertadores final between Flamengo and Palmeiras saw an interesting twist with the Fla Fest held at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro. The event, which occurred on Saturday, September 29, featured the live broadcast of the match held in Lima, Peru.
Ticket Sales and Attendance
Despite the significance of the match, the attendance at Maracanã was notably low. Approximately 30,000 tickets were sold for the Fla Fest, which is a stark contrast to past finals where the stadium was filled to capacity.
Before the game, the atmosphere around the stadium was calm, with no long lines or large crowds. However, the stadium filled a bit more as kickoff approached, though certain sections—like the East Upper and part of the South—remained closed to fans.
Event Features
- Ten large screens were set up on the field, in addition to four fixed screens.
- Musical performances by DJs Papatinho, Shadow, Ramonzin, and MC Maneirinho entertained the attendees prior to the match.
- Street vendors sold merchandise, including champion banners, with prices increasing from R$20 to R$50 following a potential victory for Flamengo.
Ticket Pricing
Official ticket sales were conducted online, with prices ranging from R$80 to R$600. In contrast, scalpers outside the stadium sold tickets for as much as R$200.
Flamengo members enjoyed discounted ticket options, ensuring loyal supporters had a chance to join the festivities.
As the match unfolded in Lima, the Fla Fest continued as a gathering point for Flamengo fans, marking another chapter in the club’s storied history.
