FC Barcelona and ONCE present lottery ticket to commemorate 125th anniversary
The build-up to today's LaLiga gameweek 10 fixture between Barça and Sevilla included the presentation of the ticket for special ONCE lottery draw on Saturday 30 November to commemorate FC Barcelona's 125th anniversary. Five and a half million tickets created in blaugrana colours for this landmark event will be distributed for purchase nationwide.
FC Barcelona president Joan Laporta was joined by ONCE's vice-president José Luis Pinto, Catalonian representative Enric Botí, and other persons from the institution in the box at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys. The presentation was a first official look at the ticket that will be made available for purchase via the organisation's 2450-plus salespersons.
This commemorative lottery ticket is the fruition of ONCE's mission to make thousands of persons with disabilities' dreams come true, creating jobs, providing education and other services to make their day-to-day lives better, and FC Barcelona's kindred mission to make the Club an increasingly inclusive and diverse organisation and to help build a fairer and more equitable society for everyone.
Tickets go on sale on 13 November
Five and a half million tickets bearing the FC Barcelona 125th anniversary image will be available for purchase from ONCE points of sale from 13 November in Catalonia and across the rest of the country from 20 November. The lottery will be drawn on 30 November, the day after the Club's 125th anniversary.
