Estudiantes de La Plata’s general admission tickets for the 2026 Copa Libertadores final against Palmeiras sold out quickly, reflecting overwhelming fan demand. CONMEBOL will release a new batch of category 2 box seats to the public on Wednesday, November 11, as the club’s efforts to secure more tickets for its supporters reached a capacity limit.
Estudiantes fans demonstrated their fervent support for the club’s continental final, purchasing all available general admission tickets within a short timeframe, El Día de La Plata reported. The initial release of 12,000 tickets for the general admission section, corresponding to the Ámsterdam Stand, sold out rapidly. The club’s leadership then engaged in negotiations with CONMEBOL and Uruguayan security authorities to increase the allocation, securing additional spots. However, even this expanded quota was exhausted as the high demand from supporters continued unabated.

The intense desire to travel to Montevideo for the final on November 28 shows the massive expectation surrounding Estudiantes' pursuit of a fifth Libertadores title. The club announced that following the sellout of the general admission tickets, a new opportunity will arise for fans still seeking to attend. CONMEBOL has announced it will make a remnant of category 2 box seats available to the general public on Wednesday, November 11.
Category 3 Tickets Sell Out for Estudiantes Fans
The ticket sale process, managed through the official CONMEBOL platform, began with the distribution of 12,000 category 3 tickets for Estudiantes supporters. These tickets, priced at USD 95, were designated for the Ámsterdam Stand. Access to this initial sale was prioritized based on the club’s member ranking system, with a final score cutoff established on October 26, 2026, to determine eligibility.

The overwhelming response from fans led Estudiantes to act swiftly. According to Olé, the club engaged in “a permanent management with CONMEBOL and the security organisms of Uruguay” to expand the number of tickets allocated to its supporters. This effort successfully increased the quota to its maximum permitted level. Despite this expansion, the high level of interest meant the newly available tickets were also snapped up, confirming that the general admission allocation for Estudiantes fans is now fully depleted.
Upcoming Opportunity: Category 2 Box Seat Sale
For fans unable to secure tickets in the initial rounds, a new chance will arrive next week. CONMEBOL confirmed it will release a remnant of category 2 box seats for sale to the general public on Wednesday, November 11. This sale will not be subject to the member ranking priority that governed the general admission tickets.

These category 2 box seats are located in the Olympic Stand, contiguous to the Ámsterdam popular stand, up to the midfield line. On the official sales platform, these seats will be identified as “Sector Estudiantes” and can be purchased using an Argentine national ID (DNI). Unlike category 3 tickets, category 2 tickets are not numerated, and their sale is organized exclusively by CONMEBOL, not by the club itself.
Estudiantes Faces Palmeiras at Estadio Centenario
The final match is set for Saturday, November 28, at 17:00 local Uruguay time (UTC-3) at the historic Estadio Centenario in Montevideo. Estudiantes, led by coach Alexander Medina, will face Brazil’s Palmeiras in the culmination of the 2026 CONMEBOL Libertadores tournament. The club anticipates a significant following in Montevideo, with expectations that over 12,000 fans will make the journey to support their team.
