IMPORTANT INFORMATION: LCFC Fans In Seville

LCFC.com has some important information for all Leicester City supporters travelling to Seville to watch the Foxes in the UEFA Champions League.
It is set to be a historic night for the Club as they contest the first of two last-16 ties at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium on Wednesday 22 February, 2017. 

All fans making the trip to Seville are asked to take note of the below information to help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all. 

Location: Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium, Seville, Spain 

Time zone: +1 hour GMT 

Currency: Euro 

Tickets: SOLD OUT 

TRAVELLING FANS 

Police wish to promote a relaxed atmosphere by offering the Arenal District of Sevilla, along Adriano Street, as a specific area for LCFC fans, with O’Neill’s Bar being the most prominent. O’Neill’s Bar is approximately 20 minutes’ walk from the main train station – Seville Santa Justa. 

Seville Police have experience with UEFA Champions League supporters and will therefore engage with fans, but will under no circumstances tolerate any form of anti-social behaviour

As a point of reference for fans, there will be designated Leicester City stewards in hi-vis coats with visible ID, located in the town centre. 

It is the law in Spain that everyone must carry some form of ID on them at all times – preferably a driving licence or passport

Landlords of public houses may refuse to allow fans to dress their hostelry in Leicester colours and we ask that fans respect their wishes. The content of the flag or banner must not be derogatory toward any topic or colourful language. 

JOURNEY TO RAMON SANCHEZ-PIZJUAN STADIUM 

Seville police will expect LCFC fans to congregate at approximately 6pm local time at the coach drop off point on the Menendez Pelayo Avenue for the escorted short walk to the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium. 

The journey from San Pablo Airport, Seville to city centre via bus or taxi takes approximately 30 minutes

Bus: EA buses operate from approximately 4.30am to around 12.15am. A single ticket costs €4, while a round trip costs €6. 

Taxi: Outside the terminal, there are several taxis waiting for passengers. The trip to the city centre costs around €20-25 euros, while journeys times are dependent upon traffic. 

The Seville train station, Seville Santa Justa, is located in the eastern part of Seville's city centre and this contemporary station provides service from Cordoba, Malaga and Madrid via the AVE and RENFE trains. 

A metro system offers regular services around the City, but does not extend to the airport. This will transport fans around the City. However, the areas worthy of note are within walking distance. The average cost of a journey is €1.40 euros. 

Upon arrival into Seville by coach, Leicester City fans will be transported to the Enramadilla Avenue, adjacent to the ticket office collection point (Viapol Hotel) and the second O’Neill’s pub.

TICKETS 

The match ticket collection point will be located at Hotel NH Sevilla Viapol, Calle Balbino Marrón, 9, 41018 Seville, Spain, opening from 9am until 6pm local time

Hotel Viapol is approximately a 10-minute walk from the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium. A second O’Neill’s bar is located opposite the Hotel Viapol which may also be used by Leicester City fans. 

Supporters will be required to present the passport that they have used to travel and their redeemable ticket voucher in order to collect their actual match ticket. All Champions League match tickets will be sold to individual Season Ticket Holders and Members using their unique supporter numbers and must be collected in person by the respective Season Ticket Holder - this includes all concessions and companions. We will only issue match tickets to the individuals that they have been allocated to. 

Therefore, should the name on the voucher and the passport not match, you will not be issued with a match ticket. Other forms of ID and photocopies will not be accepted under any circumstances. 

All tickets purchased under a Season Ticket Holder Supporter Number will not be transferable and cannot be used by any other supporter. 

Supporters are advised to arrive at the ticket collection point as early as possible to avoid delays. There will be no opportunity to collect tickets once the facility is closed. 

Those travelling with the Club’s Thomas Cook supporter travel will receive their match tickets on the flight. 

Fans who DO NOT have a ticket for the fixture are strongly advised not to travel to Seville. 

Please note, there will be NO ticket sales on the day of the game. 

Tickets are SOLD OUT for the Sevilla fixture.

It is a criminal offence to attempt to enter the stadium with fireworks, smoke bombs or marine flares.

FAN LOCATION 

LCFC fans will enter the stadium through designated turnstiles 11 (lower tier) and 12 (upper tier), with turnstiles opening two hours before kick-off, or earlier if deemed necessary by police. Fans MUST arrive early to avoid congestion and enter the ground in sufficient time for kick-off. 

Kiosks will provide soft drinks and food ahead of the game and at half-time. Only food and drink purchased inside the stadium are allowed into the stands. Concessions in the stadium are CASH ONLY

The area for Leicester City fans in the stadium is NOT covered and therefore does not protect fans from the elements. Temperatures are expected to be mild in the day, but much cooler in the evening.

At the end of the game, LCFC fans must remain in their section until they are released by police. They will then be walked to their coaches, which will be located outside the stadium.
