Avaí Ticket Controversy: Figueirense Fights for Equal Pricing

A heated dispute has erupted between rivals Avaí and Figueirense over ticket pricing for their upcoming clash. The controversy centers around Avaí’s pricing structure, which figueirense argues creates an unfair disparity for visiting fans.

The issue came to light when Avaí announced its ticket prices last Monday,January 20th. While the initial R$200 price tag for sectors H (designated for visiting fans) and “Hangover” raised eyebrows, it was Avaí’s promotional offer that truly sparked outrage. The club announced a R$20 discount for fans wearing Avaí jerseys, a promotion conspicuously absent for Figueirense supporters.

“When Avaí announced their ticket pricing,we instantly noticed a discrepancy,” explained Gabriela Silva,Figueirense’s legal representative. “Both sectors H, designated for visiting fans, and the ‘Hangover’ sector were priced at R$200. Adding to this inconsistency, Avaí offered a R$20 discount for fans wearing their jerseys – a promotion conspicuously absent for Figueirense supporters.”

Figueirense swiftly took action, sending an extrajudicial notification to both Avaí and the Santa Catarina football Federation (FCF) on January 20th, raising concerns about the pricing inconsistencies.

Avaí faced further pressure when the consumer protection agency, Procon, intervened. On Tuesday,January 21st,Procon notified Avaí,demanding equal market practices for both sets of fans in accordance with consumer protection laws.

A meeting between Procon and Avaí was scheduled for Friday afternoon to discuss the matter further, however, before the meeting could take place, the Tribunal de Justiça Desportiva de Santa catarina (TJD-SC) stepped in.

The TJD-SC, Football’s disciplinary body in Santa Catarina, ruled in favor of Figueirense, stating that Avaí must extend the R$20 jersey discount to visiting fans. The ruling cites Article 59 of the FCF’s General Competition Regulations, which mandates that ticket prices for visiting fans must be equivalent to those of the local supporters within comparable stadium sections. TJD vice-president Mario cesar Bertoncini emphasized the importance of equal treatment, stating, “the promotion of discounts (when not linked to the condition of partner of the ticket acquiring tickets) must be the same for both fans.”

avaí has 24 hours to comply with the TJD’s ruling. The club’s legal representatives have yet to confirm if they will appeal the decision.

What actions did Figueirense take in response to this situation?

We acted swiftly.We sent an extrajudicial notification to both Avaí and the Santa Catarina football Federation (FCF) raising our concerns about the pricing inconsistencies and highlighting the violation of these regulations.

avaí has indicated they may appeal the TJD-SC’s ruling. How will Figueirense respond to that?

We are prepared to defend our position vigorously if Avaí decides to appeal. We are confident in the strength of our case and believe the TJD-SC’s ruling accurately reflects the FCF regulations and ensures fair treatment for all fans.

What do you hope this case achieves for the future of football in Santa Catarina?

Our greatest hope is that this case sets a precedent for fair and equitable treatment of all fans.Every fan, irrespective of which club they support, deserves a welcoming and inclusive environment at football matches.
