Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium Tickets

Experience events at Apostolos Nikolaidis!

Often called "Leoforos," the Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium is a proud part of Panathinaikos's 112-year history. The team was formed in 1908 during the Greek revolution and played its first match in 1910. It has since then been a reputable force in Greek sports and is one of the two major forces in Greek football, playing with the other club, Olympiakos. Panathinaikos won its first championship in 1929 and has since then won 36 more domestic titles, with the latest one being in 2008. Along the way to these triumphs, the club has also won 18 domestic cups, and they've also won the double (league and cup) with some of their players playing in the national team during summers between 1929 and 1932. Moreover, they made their mark in European competitions winning a further 8 trophies.

Securing tickets to witness Panathinaikos at this hallowed ground means joining a legacy stretching back six decades. Every ticket listing undergoes an authentication process where the patterns of the barcodes, the seat numbers, and the date of the event are closely matched with the official Panathinaikos ticketing system before becoming publicly visible. These steps ensure that Ticombo does not sell fake tickets.

When it comes to paying for the digital ticket, the seller is not paid until the event ticket has first been scanned at the venue, ensuring secure transactions. This process safeguards your payment by maintaining an escrow system until the ticket's authenticity and usability are confirmed.

About Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium

Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium History

Since its opening in 1964, the stadium has been associated with Panathinaikos and the ambition to have a dedicated home ground for the club's expanding fanbase. It embodies the modernist public architecture ethos in Greece, built alongside historical sports landmarks such as the Panathenaic Stadium and the Kallimarmaro.

The early 1970s saw Panathinaikos make an extraordinary journey to the European Cup semifinals on these sacred grounds. While the Apostolos Nikolaidis Stadium name was not yet internationally known, the club was already competing at an elevated European level, with players like Antonis Antoniadis dazzling fans. The stadium holds about 12,000 spectators and possesses an intimate atmosphere more akin to an ice hockey arena than a football field.

Architecturally, it is simple without extravagant luxury boxes but was considered one of the best places in the world to watch a football match for years.
