Understand the club, get a ticket, pick a stand or route, plan food and a hotel, and find the fan culture around Porto.
Porto’s modern identity combines domestic dominance with European wins in 1987, 2003, 2004 and 2011. The current stadium is a 50,033-capacity UEFA-category ground on the metro line.
| Competition | Result | Years / seasons |
|---|---|---|
| European Cup / UEFA Champions League | winner | 1986-87, 2003-04 |
| UEFA Cup / UEFA Europa League | winner | 2002-03, 2010-11 |

Estádio do Dragão is in eastern Porto, beside the Estádio do Dragão metro stop and close to Alameda Shopping. Metro lines connect the ground to the city and airport routes.
Use FC Porto official routes first; big domestic and European fixtures may prioritise members and season-ticket holders. The live FC Porto ticket portal/fixture page decides sale windows. For museum/tour tickets, use the museum/stadium-tour booking route.
