ELAS Plan
Nea Philadelphia is now under a security perimeter with the presence of police at critical points already evident as traffic regulations will begin from the early hours of tomorrow, Wednesday.
Early Monday morning, the “sweep” of the OPAP Arena by all security services, including the Bomb Disposal Unit (TEEM) and dogs, was completed, along with the establishment and inspection of the security perimeter. Additionally, the emergency exits were checked and secured, while the Municipality completed the distribution of credentials to residents. The Philadelphia Grove, which is closed from today, has also been thoroughly inspected and is guarded by the authorities. Furthermore, schools in Nea Philadelphia will be closed on the day of the final.
According to information, 120 volunteer rescuers will be present in the stadium, and for the first time, there will be a walking fire brigade unit at each gate and in each stand of the stadium. This means that even if a firework lands in the stadium, the firefighters will remove it immediately. Additionally, aerial units will cover the airspace and a larger radius around the stadium.
As explained by police sources, seven control zones will be created, and no one will be able to approach the stadium without a ticket or accreditation, while the ELAS helicopter and drone will be operating from above, providing continuous images to the operations center.
Fan Transportation
On Tuesday morning, it was announced that measures for fan access to the stadiums include the creation of two separate gathering points for the fans of both teams (Fan Meeting Points). Their transportation will be controlled, escorted by police, using ISAP trains and OSY buses allocated exclusively for this purpose.
Olympiacos Fans:
– Fans with red tickets will gather in a specially designated area around the Peace and Friendship Stadium in Neo Faliro.

Fiorentina Fans:
– Fans with blue tickets will gather at a designated area at the O.A.K.A.
– They will then be transported under strict security measures to the stadium using OSY buses.
Neutral Fans:
– Fans with white tickets will be served by the “Irini” and “Thiseio” ISAP stations, traveling without intermediate stops to the “Perissos” station.
Special Provisions:

All fans must have their legal ticket, which is strictly personalized, and their ID card. “We ask fans to cooperate with the police instructions and the checks that will be conducted to avoid any inconvenience or delay,” added ELAS spokesperson, Konstantina Demoglidou.
Stadium Arrival:
– Upon arrival at the stadium, fans will be directed to the appropriate access points and will be required to show their ticket and ID again and undergo a body search.
– The tickets issued through the UEFA app contain all relevant terms and the list of prohibited items.
– If any prohibited items are found during the check, fans will be removed and taken to a police station.
Departure from the Stadium
