I went to see Barca in March, as part of a stag weekend.
Flew to Barcalona airport with BA return for £78.
Not sure how long to get to the Nou Camp from the airport, but taxi's are cheap.
Game kicked off at 8pm. It was a Sat night game. I suspect Barca v Real would be a weekend night match as well.
If I was going for the game, I'd have 1 night ina hotel as well. We stayed in a 3* for £50 a room, £25 each. Hotel Europark.
Enjoy.

You are gonna need ALOT of money to get a ticket for a game between those two.

It's about 16 miles from Barca airport to the Nou Camp IIRC. The Nou Camp is an awesome stadium... but dont get a seat on the top tier.

Camp Nou is a fabulous place and well worth a visit. As Funkii says, just change the opposition

Good luck with getting tickets for the Barca v Real Madrid fixtures, and they ain't cheap! Some of the local agencies offer tickets for games, and can deliver whilst you're out there. Do a google for them. I remember finding one that showed the exact location of the seat you wanted to purchase.

Fly Easyjet to Barcelona El Prat airport, get the train into Sants Estacio central station, then line 3 on the metro to les Corts. About 5-10 minutes to walk from there. Easy getting there on the metro and worth getting a travelcard to see a bit of the city.

You'd be better spending a couple of days over there and doing the tour of the Camp Nou as well. Its only 10 euros and you're free to wander round the route of the tour and take as long as you like. This covers the away dressing room, players tunnel, the benches, middle tier where the directors sit, the upper tier, press box in the roof, and museum which has loads of stuff in. Just don't do what I did, and ask the attendants exactly where Rijkaard met Frisk in the tunnel..... apparently it didn't happen .

Time of the game could be Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon/evening.

Or you could always be different and go watch Espanyol at home. Thats a good laugh and tickets are easy to come by....buy them at the ground. 35 Euros for a seat along the side of the pitch. Take the funicular railway from Paral-lel which is also on line 3.

Enjoy!

Mark
