Moscow Travel Forum

We'll visit Moscow in August or September and we also want to visit Lushiniki to see a match of Spartak. I realize, that it isn't sold out every week, so I suppose that getting tickets won't be difficult. Should we just buy them in front of the stadium? I'd also appreciate all tipps and hints regarding visiting a match of Spartak.

Additionally I am seeking a schedule of the Russian league including the kick-off time (at the moment I orientate myself using http://www.rsssf.com/tablesr/rus09.html, but there are no kickoff-times.

Hi there! It seems to be hard to get the kick-off times but here are two links which might be useful. The first one is another calendar and table but you can also find info about the stadions and telephone numbers. The other one has links to all the clubs in the league where you can come to the clubs homepages and perhaps get better info about kick-off times by mailing the club. It's all in Russian but in fact it possible to get out quite much of it anyway.

in front of the stadium you may buy the tickets with the people who re-sell the tickets and it will be more expensive :-)) but yes, you may buy tickets in the ticket offices of the stadium just before the play. If you visit the Russian championship you may buy the tickets without problem (i did that twice as my experience, last time in 2007). you may order tickets in the special internet shops while you're in Moscow as well. usually they get RUR 200-300 for delivery
