Boca Juniors is Argentina’s most popular team and team most guests want to see when visiting.

The fervency of Boca Juniors fans and their historical stadium, commonly called, La Bombonera offer a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

When making the important decision of choosing an Argentine football team, Boca Juniors is a safe bet.

River Plate is the country’s most second popular team and their stadium, known as ‘Monumental’ is the largest stadium in the country.

Unfortunately both Boca Juniors and River Plate have ‘members only’ policies, so tickets are not sold to the public.

Even most members can’t see the games.

Boca Juniors has 213,000+ Boca team members and only 54,000 seats in the stadium.
