Atletico Football Tickets - a "must" for your Stag in Madrid

Atletico Madrid, much like Manchester City, represent the complete opposite of Real Madrid in more ways than one, with their home, the 55,000 seat Vicente Calderon, situated astride a motorway in the more industrial southern part of the city. If Real Madrid are not playing at home, this is a good option to see a premier league team during your stag weekend in Madrid.

Their fans proudly sport T-shirts bearing the logo "Anti-Madridistas" and they offer a livlier atmosphere than their wealthier neighbours. Worth a visit during your trip to Madrid!

Matches are usually scheduled for Sunday evenings but this can change to the Saturday evening due to either television rights or forthcoming European fixtures. Whilst the draw indicates the weekend a game will be played, it is not until the Monday before the game that the day (Saturday or Sunday) and the time are decided, so keep this in mind when booking flights to Madrid for your stag weekend if you plan on going to a game.

The Atletico home games for the 2008/09 season is as follows:
