Art 1. Admission and regulations for visiting spectators

1.1 In accordance with Article 17 of Spanish Royal Decree 203/2010, all spectators must carry their own individual ticket or entrance permit while inside the Stadium. Entrance is therefore authorised to any person that presents a valid ticket or permit, including children of all ages. This document must be handed over for inspection at the gates or inside the stadium at the request of any member of FC Barcelona staff, or of its Security Services or of any corresponding member of the Police Force. Only persons with a valid ticket or permit or who can justify by other means that they are authorised to be there may remain on the premises.

In any case, the holder of the ticket or permit shall only be entitled to use the seat stated on the same, and is expressly prohibited from using different areas or seats in the stadium. The validity of the ticket expires once the holder has left the premises.

1.2 In accordance with Article 52 of Spanish Royal Decree 2816/1982, entrance to the Stadium is not permitted with bulky objects, baby strollers or other large items that obstruct exits.

1.3 All children under 14 years of age must be accompanied by at least one adult, who shall be the person who assumes direct responsibility over such minors while on the premises. Persons aged over 14 may enter without necessarily being accompanied by an adult, but it shall be understood that they have been authorised to do so by their parents or guardians, at the time they enter the stadium.

1.4 Authorisation to enter the premises is guaranteed for those persons who have obtained their ticket from their club when this club is the visiting team.

1.5 Every ticket sold must bear the name of the visiting supporter who purchased the ticket, which is of a personal nature and non-transferable.

1.6 Persons responsible for security and control are instructed to expel any supporters of the visiting team that enter the area reserved for supporters of the home team, or any supporter who causes problems, regardless of the validity of their tickets and to direct them to a place in the corresponding area (provided there are seats available and the visiting team agrees). If there is no seat in the visiting sector, the offender shall be expelled from the premises or simply refused entrance in the first instance.

1.7 After leaving the premises, re-entry to the same shall not be permitted.

Art 2. Ticket checks and physical searches

2.1 When tickets and permits are being validated, all supporters may be required to show their tickets or permits to the police or to the private security delegates and hand them over if they are so asked. Private security officers or delegates are authorised to verify official identity documents (DNI, passport, etc.). Entrance to the premises shall be refused to anyone who refuses to be searched by private security staff or to show their identification.

2.2 The club's private security staff are authorised to search all persons, including with the use of technical methods. If due to the possession and/or consumption of drugs or alcohol, or carrying weapons, pyrotechnic articles or dangerous objects, these persons pose a threat to public safety, they shall be refused entry to the premises. Searches may also be extended to visitors' belongings provided that said visitors expressly issue their permission. However, entrance to the stadium will be refused to all persons who refuse to allow these authorised searches.

2.3 Any person who has a prohibition order against their entrance on the premises shall be refused access, and such persons shall not be entitled to a refund of the cost of the acquired tickets.

Art 3. Behaviour on the premises

3.1 While on the premises, spectators must behave in a way that does not cause damage to themselves or to other spectators. They may not put anyone in danger, obstruct any other person, or cause any inconvenience to other spectators.

3.2 Spectators must at all times obey any instructions issued via the police, private security, fire service, medical personnel or the public announcement system or from other persons qualified by the club and duly identified.

3.3 For reasons of security, to ensure protection, or for organizational/operational causes, police or private security may ask spectators to move to other seats, even outside of their allocated section.

3.4 All staircases, entrances, exits and corridors (including emergency exits) must be free at all times.

3.5 The display of any flag, banner, mosaic or any other act of expression that implies the use of any type of system, material or organization, must have been made of non-combustible material  and previously authorised by the Club.

3.6 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any other applicable regulations shall be applicable to behaviour on the premises in order to prevent or eliminate any threat to life, health or property.
