Rayo Vallecano to compensate season ticket holders after playing away from home

Published 2026-10-23

Rayo Vallecano has officially announced that it will compensate its season ticket holders for the inconveniences caused during the start of the season. Due to renovation work at the Estadio de Vallecas, the team had to play its first three home matches at the Estadio de Butarque, located in Leganés.

This situation forced thousands of fans to travel outside their neighborhood to support the team. The club's board of directors has acknowledged the discomfort this change of venue has caused the supporters, who were unable to enjoy the matches at their usual stadium during the first weeks of the competition.

To address this issue, the club has designed a compensation plan that includes discounts on season ticket renewals for next season or invitations to future matches. With this measure, Rayo Vallecano seeks to maintain the loyalty of its fanbase and thank the supporters who made the effort to travel to Leganés.

The club has announced that specific details on how to request these compensations will be available on its official website starting next week. Season ticket holders will need to present their membership card to access the benefits offered by the Madrid-based organization.

This decision has been well received by the team's supporters' clubs, which value the board's gesture in the face of an exceptional situation. Rayo Vallecano hopes that, once the work is completed, the atmosphere in Vallecas will return to normal and fans will be able to enjoy the matches at their home stadium.
