Article body
UEFA and the local organising committee of the 2013 UEFA Champions League final are aware of a number of companies and websites offering tickets and hospitality packages to the match, many of which are advertised at vastly inflated prices.
Please be informed that any unauthorised offer or sale of tickets to this match in the UK is a criminal offence under British law. UEFA and The Football Association (FA) are working with the authorities to combat ticket touting activities in the lead-up to the UEFA Champions League final and we will be taking appropriate legal action against ticket touts found to be breaking UK law and/or the ticketing Terms and Conditions.
All official sales channels are now closed and tickets as well as hospitality packages are completely sold out. We urge you not to purchase tickets or hospitality packages from unauthorised sellers. Any unauthorised sale renders tickets invalid. Identity checks may be carried out at Wembley Stadium and ticket holders will be denied entry if their tickets have been purchased from unauthorised sources.
