Great Fan Experience
Guests say it's special and unique.
Considered by major magazines, newspapers and almost every single football lover, the greatest and biggest derby on earth. Boca Juniors v River Plate is a derby like no other. Complete Madness & Passion. And of course, you are invited to this epic final game for the Champions Trophy at a neutral ground at the historic Mario Kempes stadium at Córdoba.
The match is a phenomenon and the spectacle momentous. It is not merely a football match; it is a national event that commands an unrivalled level of attention. Work becomes secondary, the to-do list is swept to the side and all overhanging bills are thrust to the back reaches of the mind for almost two hours as Boca Juniors take on River Plate.
In the early years of this rivalry, it basically boiled down to a battle of the classes, between the rich affluent people of Núñez and the working-class people of La Boca; the Millionaires versus the People’s club. Boca fans are actually known as Xeneizes (Genoese) in reference to Genoa in Italy as many Boca fans come from the local Italian immigrant community. River Plate, on the other hand, became known as, Los Millonarios (The Millionaires), as they supposedly had an upper-class support base.
It is a local rivalry not only steeped in politics; it is born out of the most intense love for the game. That love can often turn ugly to a fiery hatred, as the two clubs eternally fight to be Argentina’s ultimate team.
Sound good? Vámonos.
Even though we are a friendly bunch, we are not directly responsible for the activity.
We are a marketplace, which means we facilitate that travellers like yourself, take part in a sports experience offered by a fully-vetted local host who has enrolled on the platform.
The responsibility to carry out the activity relies exclusively on the local host. However, we as a marketplace and acting in the interests of everyone, supervise everything and facilitate comms and support when needed for a flawless experience.
Whilst the fixture calendar has been released, final confirmed dates are usually announced 2-3 weeks before the kick-off date, due to TV schedule. It is possible then, that Sunday matches will move to Saturday and vice-versa. The local hosts will keep you posted in case there is a change.
When you choose and pay for your an activity on the Homefans marketplace, you will receive a booking confirmation directly after the booking via email. In this confirmation, you will get all the details of your booking.
Once the booking is done, you will receive an order confirmation and the Homefans tech platform will notify the host about it. You can always chat with the host on the marketplace by clicking on the ‘ASK A QUESTION‘ button – you will send and receive messages you can check on your own dashboard with email notifications.
A few days prior to the game, the host will get in touch with you via Whatsapp to arrange the appropriate logistics.
The activities on the Homefans marketplace are designed and executed by fully-vetted locals that have been approved by Homefans.
All bookings made on Homefans are backed by our Buyer Guarantee so you have peace on mind when booking.
With more than 10,000+ customers , Homefans is one of the biggest specialised sports marketplaces in the world.
The maximum number of people the host will allow is stated above.
However, this number may not always be met and it may even be possible that your party is on the tour on your own.
Higher numbers make for a more sociable experience, lower numbers make for more personalised attention from your host. Look at it as a win/win!
An activity on the Homefans marketplace involves a fully-vetted host, who offers a specific experience around a sporting event (match day experience with a ticket for the game) or some other cultural experiences (walking tours, stadium & museum tours with a local, among others).
They last between 2 hours up to a whole day. Please check the inclusions in each activity on the “What’s Included‘ section.
We recommend not to bring bags and valuables to the stadia in Argentina. Just the bare minimum to be more comfortable during your experience.
Also, please restrain from wearing the away team’s colours as it will make it almost impossible to access the ground.
If you foresee that you cannot longer attend the activity you booked, you can do it within the next 24 hours after your booking was done.
According to our Terms & Conditions, after the 24 hour window, the host cancellation policy applies, and it depends on each host. Given that it involves tickets, it’s usually non-refundable.
If you have solid grounds on why you want to cancel, please get in touch with Homefans and we will facilitate the process with the local host.
