Buying Catalans Tickets online

[shaun mc]

Anyone successfully purchased tickets for a Catalans game using their online ticketing system?

I'm in Perpignan at the time of the Wigan game on the 26th and want to go to the game

I've tried for 3 days to book a ticket - the system goes as far as choosing a seat and putting into a basket, but then I can't confirm or pay for the ticket. It then times out after 20 minutes and removes the ticket from my basket

I've registered with the ticket website and log-in when purchasing

Any tips?

No need to book in my experience.

Just buy a ticket from the office or try to get a freebie.

The 'ultras' are in the Guasch-Laborde stand. I'd recommend it for the atmos.

Thanks

It looks to be 75% sold already, if their pick a seat graphic in each stand is accurate, and its the current 1st vs 2nd. Therefore, I'd rather try and buy a ticket in a reasonable seat (and not within the Wigan fans - nothing against the fans, but I'm attending as a neutral) before I leave the UK, and not be left with the scraps

I'm hoping to be there for that too with the family. Was just going to rock up on the night to be honest

Got the ticket booked, sussed the booking system

After selecting the seat and then at each stage after that till payment, convert the language back from EN to FR (if you are in EN in the first place) and it will go through each stage of the booking process

The club are putting up an extra 1,000 seating for the Wigan and Leeds matches - shoudn't be a problem on the day

Save me starting a new thread mate. When do the FFRXIII usually announce Elite One grand final venue? Is it likely to be Narbonne again?

I don't know. They're waiting to have a new President to be sorted out in September I think. I would imagine they'll stay with Narbonne as the last two years they done well with 8,000 crowds. Having matchs over the weekend for women and juniors has been popular

Yeah impressive crowds. I looked back at previous grand finals held in Toulouse, Albit etc which only attracted ~3,000. Narbonne seems a winner - I’m assuming due to its location within the Aude region?

Yes Narbonne on the coast with the three Aude clubs not far away - similar to the south and Perpignan with Pia and St Esteve (Dragons reserve team)
