About RCD Espanyol Tickets 2024/25

The name of RCD Espanyol is appropriate, considering it was the first Spanish club formed exclusively by Spanish fans and not by expatriates, which was common practice at the turn of the 20th century. However, its neighbour FC Barcelona overshadows the Catalan team.

La Liga was never conquered by Espanyol, even though the team has played for 80 seasons in the top-tier league. Nevertheless, supporters value the four Copa del Rey trophies, won in 1928–29, 1940, 1999–2000, and 2005–06 seasons. The team has a knack for reaching finals, having got to two UEFA Cup titles in the 1987–88 and 2006–07 seasons.

Although numerous titles decorate the halls of the archrival, RCD Espanyol is privileged to use Real in its name, thanks to the patronage of the Spanish royal crown, granted in 1912 by Alfonso XIII. The official name is Real Club Deportivo Espanyol de Barcelona. Fans take pride in that fact and even went to great lengths to reinstate their name after the prohibition of using royal symbols in the 1930s.

There is another name for the club in circulation among fans in Barcelona, and that is Parakeets. Several local legends explain the genesis of the nickname. Yet the most convincing is that when the team moved to Sarria Stadium, birds were nesting in the surrounding trees, and fans adapted them as their mascot.

The nickname stuck, but the team changed venues a few times since then, moving to RCDE Stadium in the 2009–10 season. Fans that want to purchase Espanyol tickets can use SeatPick to find cheap tickets and watch live one of the most respected football clubs.

About RCD Espanyol Football Tickets

The Catalan team was founded in 1900 and was based in the Sarria district. Financial issues and occasional name changes marked Espanyol's first decade on the football scene.

Things started settling in 1909, when Espanyol emerged as a respected football team, becoming a founding member of La Liga in 1928.

The Copa del Rey title in 1929 boosted the initial positive trend. Unfortunately, success did not follow regularly. Although a staple member of Spain's elite league, the closest Espanyol came to the title was their third place finish in the 1932–33 season.

In 1997 the team went looking for a new home after Sarria Stadium and decided on Olímpic de Montjuic, which offered a respectable 45,000 capacity. However, a move followed in the 2009-10 season, when the team uprooted again and adopted as their new home RCDE Stadium, a UEFA-four-star ranked venue.

The lack of results has not waned interest in Espanyol home matches, even though in most seasons, it seems the team is more focused on avoiding relegation than the title.
