Queues as Villarreal season-ticket reallocation begins amid Estadio de la Cerámica works | OneFootball

Hundreds of Villarreal supporters queued from early on Monday 20 July as the reallocation phase for 2026/27 season tickets opened at Estadio de la Cerámica. According to El Periódico Mediterráneo, long lines formed outside club offices as work on the stadium forces some fans to move seats.

Phase two, the renewal window for relocated holders, runs until Thursday 23 July. It is reserved for holders whose seats are removed or affected by the remodel and the new internal layout.

The club operated a pre-booked appointment system that prioritised seniority, yet the heavy turnout brought delays around the ground. The Official Store in Plaza Mayor, Vila-real, also reported strong footfall for related procedures.

Many arrived early to review available locations and resolve questions on sightlines, access, prices and closeness to their previous spots. For those affected, this is not a standard renewal, they must leave long-held seats and choose a new place when called.

That explains the anticipation, and in some cases concern, among supporters aiming to stay in a similar area. Seniority is decisive as inventory reduces through the day’s appointments.

After reallocated renewals, Phase three runs from 24 to 27 July for holders whose areas have changed name or category and for those in Tribuna Impar Central and Lateral.

Phase four will take place on 28 and 29 July, allowing general season-ticket holders to request a move, subject to availability. Phase five, for new sign-ups, begins on three August, with late renewals and new memberships dependent on remaining seats.
