Boca vs Vasco at La Bombonera: a members’ guide to the Sudamericana semifinal

What is being played and when

Boca Juniors will host Vasco da Gama at La Bombonera on Tuesday, October 13, 2026, from 9:30 p.m., in the first leg of one of the CONMEBOL Sudamericana semifinals.

The date was confirmed by Boca in its information for members and also by CONMEBOL, which made the semifinal schedule official. The tie opens in Buenos Aires and will decide one of the finalists of the continental tournament.

How Boca described access

Boca’s communication is aimed at club members. The club listed windows to acquire add-ons: full members from Thursday, October 8 at 1:00 p.m., associate members from the same day at 3:00 p.m., and online seat sales for all categories from 5:00 p.m.

For lifetime members, Boca announced a seat reservation window from Friday, October 9 at 2:00 p.m. Since those stages have already opened, it is best to check Boca’s official members’ channel before travelling or assuming availability.

What to bring to the stadium

Boca reminded supporters that entry to the stadium requires a membership card and national ID. The club also said September 2026 dues must be paid and that the card’s expiration date will not be considered.

The club’s announcement does not present a general-public sale. To avoid confusion, the practical reference remains Boca’s members’ channel rather than resale posts or unofficial accounts.

Planning the night

The match falls on a Tuesday night in La Boca, so travel may overlap with the end of the workday and with the usual movement around an international fixture. If the club or authorities publish entry operations, street closures or timing advice, those details should take priority over any earlier guide.

For non-members, the key point is not to misread the announcement: Boca’s information focuses on members. If a new access stage appears, it should be published through official channels before being treated as valid.
