The match is on Tuesday 8 December 2026 at the OPAP Arena in Athens. UEFA's schedule gives a 10pm kick-off in Athens, and as Greece is two hours ahead of the UK in December, that is 8pm on a UK clock.
The UK broadcaster is set by the Champions League's rights holders, and no channel is named in the fixture information, so check their listings in the days before the game. If you are travelling, note that a 10pm start means the final whistle comes close to midnight locally, so plan your return to the hotel in advance.
Official ticketing
Not on sale yet: AEK's official ticket shop does not list this match (checked 2 Nov).
How to get AEK Athens v Galatasaray tickets
As the home club, AEK Athens run the ticketing for this game, through the official ticket shop linked from aekfc.gr and hosted by Ticketmaster Greece. On 2 November that shop listed four games, among them the sold-out Real Madrid visit and a trip to Como, but still no Galatasaray sale. No date, price or eligibility rule has been published for this match, so it is not yet clear whether members or season ticket holders will come first.
What you can do now
- Check AEK's ticket shop, the ΕΙΣΙΤΗΡΙΑ (tickets) link on aekfc.gr, for the Galatasaray sale, and read its conditions before buying.
- If you support Galatasaray, look at your own club's arrangements for the trip; travelling supporters at European games are usually handled by the visiting club.
- Keep your travel dates fixed around Tuesday 8 December, which is a confirmed UEFA date, not a provisional one.
Resale
Resale is already open for this game. Seats listed on Hellotickets come from sellers who set their own prices, which can be above face value, and the final price is shown before you pay. Hellotickets says every ticket is authenticated, and that if there's ever an issue, you're protected by its refund policy. When an AEK sale is open to you, it is usually the less expensive route. Galatasaray's other fixtures are on Galatasaray tickets.
Good to know before you go
- Set your clockAthens is two hours ahead of the UK in December, so the 10pm local kick-off is 8pm UK time. Check your ticket shows local time.
- Plan the late finishWith a 10pm start, the game ends near midnight. Arrange transport back to your hotel before the evening rather than after the match.
- Ask about category seatsSeats sold by category do not name a stand. Ask the seller where the seats are before comparing them with Shortside listings.
- Resale deliveryHellotickets sends tickets as soon as it receives them from the seller, sometimes up to 1–2 days before the event.
Where to sit at OPAP Arena
We do not hold a sourced stand plan of the OPAP Arena, so this guide sticks to the resale areas sellers use. Shortside Upper Level and Shortside Lower Level are behind a goal, in the upper and lower parts of the stand. The other listings are price bands rather than stands: Category 1, Category 2 and Category 3, also written Cat 1, Cat 2 and Cat 3 by some sellers.
A category listing does not tell you where you will sit, so ask the seller for the stand, block and row before you pay. No away section appears in the resale data for Galatasaray supporters. AEK's other home games are on AEK Athens tickets.
