Experience an Argentine Soccer Game
Argentine Football is great for its chaos and unpredictability - with my help you can enjoy the mayhem with none of the hassle. Fixture lists & schedules are announced late, I follow the local football news closely and can pick the best game available each weekend. We'll meet at a central location (per team) & travel the easiest, safest route to the game with the fans (BA is huge!). I'll give you context on the team's history and their current situation and which players to watch. I’ll help you navigate the various Police & Stewarding controls and find the best point of entry as many access points are closed. Inside we'll be close to the action, a perfect view of the game, and as importantly, the Ultra fan groups. The Barra Brava are illicit organised fan groups and a key to the occasion - we'll see them from a safe distance providing the noise & colour. Argentine grounds are quite old and ill-maintained, while this is great aesthetically, it means they don’t have the best health & safety measures and a disappointed crowd can be impatient - again, I’ll be with you to ensure there is no trouble leaving the ground. Other things to note: You'll be safe but follow the guide's advice. The match will depend on ticket availability and this can affect prices. Photo ID may be required in advance We may not need transport - so less waiting! Tickets, Food, Beer included!
