This past weekend, the XXI Congress of Penyes of Aficiones Unidas took place in Castellón, once again bringing together over 1,000 supporters from 34 federations of penyes from the 1st and 2nd Divisions and the 1st RFEF. During the event, the traditional awards ceremony for the best fanbases of the season was held, where the Confederació Mundial de Penyes was awarded the title of “most well-traveled” supporters. This recognition highlights the loyalty of Barça supporters, members, and fans who followed their team throughout the 2024–2025 LaLiga EA Sports season.
The president of Aficiones Unidas, Jorge Guerrero, presented the award to César Ferrándiz, secretary of the Federació de Penyes Barcelonistes de les Comarques de Castelló, who accepted it on behalf of the blaugrana supporters’ community. This season, Barça fans purchased a total of 6,235 tickets for away league matches, largely thanks to the visiting stand agreement signed between Aficiones Unidas and La Liga in 2023.
Among the other awards presented, the best stadium award went to the Federació Catalana de Penyes del RCD Espanyol de Barcelona, while the best fanbase and Golden Whistle awards were given to the Agrupació de Penyes Valencianistes. Once again, the Congress of Penyes of Aficiones Unidas showcased the harmony among the various spanish football fanbases, who shared a wide range of activities over the course of three days.
