Maracanã's numbered gates are a thing of the past. With the stadium's modernization, fans must now navigate by the letters that name each entrance. On Sunday (July 28.07), the day of the derby against Botafogo, the red-and-black fans will need to look for Entrances D, E, and F.
Accesses E and F These entrances provide access to the North section of the stadium, which is divided into three levels: 1, 2, and 5. Both entrances are very close to the former Museu do Índio (Indian Museum), and fans should reach them via Avenida Radial Oeste, with Avenida Maracanã also an option. This is exactly where Gate 13 used to be, across from the now-defunct Rua Mata Machado. For those arriving by subway, the best option is to get off at Maracanã Station. This section of the stands is located behind one of the goals and will be occupied only by Flamengo fans. Fans of the Mais Querido (Flamengo's Favorite Fans) should use Access E.
Accesses D and A – Access to the sides of the Maracanã stadium, where Botafogo and Flamengo fans will watch the game together. Access D is on the east side of the stadium, in front of the Bellini statue, on Maracanã Avenue. This is where fans with tickets for Level 1 and 2 VIP boxes, as well as those with special needs, should enter. Access A is in front of the UERJ (State University of Rio de Janeiro), at the exit of the Maracanã Station subway ramp.
Accesses B and C – These are the entrances for Botafogo fans and provide access to the South sector of the stadium, which is divided into three levels: 1, 2 and 5. The two entrances are on Rua Eurico Rabelo, with the Maracanã Glass Tower located between them.
Parking
In addition to there being no parking at Maracanã, some streets around the stadium will be closed. Therefore, the best option is public transportation, with the exception of buses, which will not run along Maracanã Avenue and Eurico Rabelo Street, which will be closed. Mangueira and São Cristóvão stations are the closest to Maracanã for those opting for the train. Those who prefer to drive can park at UERJ, which will have approximately 1600 spaces available. The price is R$15.
gratuity
There are 4 tickets available for those eligible for free admission: those over 65, children up to 12, and those with special needs. There are 2 tickets for the North section and another 2 for the South section. Tickets can be picked up from Thursday (July 25.07) to Saturday (July 27.07), from noon to 12 p.m., at Maracanãzinho. Those with special needs can also pick up tickets at Maracanãzinho Ticket Office 17 on the day of the match.
half price
