Watch the Opening Ceremony Live
More than 15,000 people will fill the Reale Arena for a unique show that will be streamed live on YouTube
The big moment has arrived. Tonight at 9:30 PM, the Reale Arena will be filled with lights, music and emotion for the much-awaited Opening Ceremony of the Donosti Cup 2025. A one-hour show that gathers over 15,000 people every year in a spectacular atmosphere, with live performances, choreographies, a light and sound show, and of course, the parade of delegations, where one team per club will represent their country or region on the pitch.
If you can’t attend in person, don’t worry. This year, the ceremony will be broadcast live and free on our official YouTube channel, so no one misses one of the most special moments of the week.
The stadium gates will open at 8:30 PM and access will depend on the type of accreditation or ticket. All registered players and coaches can enter the stadium for free by showing their wristband or accreditation. Players, coaches and agents must enter through gates 9, 10, 11 or 12. Accredited supporters and those with a free or premium ticket must enter through gates 1, 2, 19 or 20. VIPs must use gate 0.
Teams participating in the parade must wear the wristband provided during the age control. Only one team per club will parade, with a maximum of 20 people. The rest of the players, coaches and companions will enjoy the show from the stands.
We recommend arriving early, using public transport whenever possible, and keeping your wristband, accreditation or ticket visible. For those arriving by bus, the Anoeta Sports City parking will be open until 6:30 PM. Illumbe Parking (just 500 meters from the stadium) will be open from 6:30 PM to 11:30 PM. For private cars, Illumbe's underground parking will be available from 7:30 PM to 11:30 PM. At the end of the event, Euskotren will offer two extra trains on the E2 line at 11:30 PM—one heading to Hendaia and another to Lasarte-Oria.
Everything’s ready for an unforgettable night. And if you can’t make it, join us live on YouTube. Don’t miss it!
