The new EuroLeague SuperCup isn't just about prestige. The tournament debuting September 18-19 at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi will offer guaranteed prize money for its four invited teams: €500,000 per club just for participating.
The champion will earn even more. Whoever lifts the inaugural title will boost their total earnings to around €750,000. And there's a third component of the prize distribution worth noting: from the remaining revenue generated by the event, EuroLeague will allocate a portion to increase financial distribution to all clubs in the league, meaning the four-team tournament ultimately benefits all eighteen teams, albeit to a lesser extent.
To put the figures in perspective: half a million guaranteed for two days of preseason is income that many EuroLeague clubs don't earn from entire playoff rounds. It's easy to see why no one declined the invitation.
Ticket Prices: €55 to €2,547
The other indicator of the event's scale is the box office, and the price range speaks volumes about the target audience. The complete two-day package, on sale starting Monday on the Etihad Arena website, starts at around €134 and climbs to €2,547 for front-row VIP seating.
Those preferring a single day will have to wait until August 31, when individual game tickets go on sale: Friday semifinal tickets range from €55 to €138, and Saturday final tickets from €102 to €256 depending on the seat location.
The lineup, as a reminder, features defending champion Olympiacos, runner-up Real Madrid, 2025 champion Fenerbahce, and host Dubai, with Olympiacos-Fenerbahce and Dubai-Real Madrid as Friday, September 18 semifinals.
