Barcelona generated €19,105,768 from hosting their latest El Clasico against Real Madrid, setting a new revenue record despite losing the match.
The figure is significantly higher than the previous best, recorded only five months earlier, underlining the huge financial appeal of the fixture alongside its sporting importance.
Barcelona’s earlier record of €16,465,731 was set on 10 May, when the club secured the La Liga title during an El Clasico. The latest total surpasses that mark by more than €2.6m.
The increased income was driven by higher ticket prices and a larger number of VIP seats at Camp Nou. The stadium’s second tier also gained four additional rows, further increasing the number of premium places available for the match.
The new figure highlights the commercial value of meetings between Barcelona and Real Madrid, with the latest fixture producing the club’s highest-ever earnings from staging the contest.
