Dragão gets set for Sporting visit, access rules and fan support | OneFootball

FC Porto host Sporting this Wednesday at 8:45pm in the second leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals. If you are going to the Dragão to support FC Porto, please note the following information:

– The gates open at 6:45pm. Arrive early so you do not miss anything, enjoy the entertainment prepared for the Friendzone in Praça do Dragão, which starts at the same time, and avoid delays when entering the stadium.

– All FC Porto members must enter the Estádio do Dragão using their physical or digital membership card (wallet). Season Ticket holders who have secured their ticket will already have their seat indicated on the digital wallet card. All other members with a ticket should check the location of their seat in the email received at the time of purchase.

– If you find a queue at the gate you usually use to enter the stadium, use one of the alternatives: gates 26, 27, 3 or 4 (West stand), 24, 25, 5 or 6 (West terrace), 12, 13, 17 or 18 (East stand), 10 or 11 (East terrace) and 21, 22 or 23 (North upper tier);

– If you are accompanying a junior member, please remember which gate to use: gate 10 (East terrace), 12 (East stand), 22 (North upper tier), 24 (West terrace) and 26 (West stand). There are no changes in the South stand;

– FC Porto will carry out transferability checks at the gates, with the aim of preventing the improper or fraudulent use of benefits exclusive to members or to certain membership categories, such as Children and Juniors.

– Members must have their March 2025 membership fee paid up to date.

– A perimeter will be set up around the square, so supporters are advised to arrive at the Dragão early to ensure smooth access in maximum safety and peace of mind.

– Praça do Dragão will be closed at 5:45pm for safety reasons, reopening when the gates open.

– Pedestrian circulation will be closed between gates 19 and 20, so supporters should bear this in mind when accessing the respective gates. These restrictions will be properly signposted at the access points to the square.

– As it is matchday, a fan support team will be available at the gates of the Estádio do Dragão to provide any assistance needed with questions that may arise.

– The Member Store services will be available at the Bandstand from 4:45pm and, after the square reopens, at the Left Luggage facility located between gates 23 and 24.

– Two extra support desks will also be available, one in the South area and the other on the East side of the stadium, complementing the service usually provided. Here you can clarify any questions, pay membership fees and take care of other member services.

– A choreography is being prepared for the teams’ entrance. Please enter early and do not swap the cards around, so that the final effect is as intended.
