No fixture yet

The calendar's quiet right now.

No Real Madrid match in the next two weeks. We'll be back the night one's scheduled.

Madridistas across Bangladesh keep this ritual alive, together.

Our story

Eight years before anyone official knew we existed

  1. 2011

    Anik Dev, alongside Md. Sharfuddin, Md. Najmul Islam Khan, and Md. Tanbir Hossain, started a Facebook group to pull Bangladeshi Madridistas out of general football forums and give them one place of their own — the first Real Madrid community on Facebook in the country.

  2. 2012

    The group's first in-person meetup came on 20 January, at Captains World in Dhanmondi. By 8 June, they were gathering again at Boomers Cafe on Bailey Road — a handful of young men in white jerseys on the front steps, a photo that still survives.

  3. For years after that, official status wasn't the point. The group watched La Décima, La Undécima, La Duodécima, and La Decimotercera together at Platinum Suites — community first, recognition a distant second.

  4. 26 Dec 2019

    Real Madrid CF officially recognized the group — the first official Real Madrid supporters' club in Bangladesh.

    Confirmed on realmadrid.com's own fan-club listing for Bangladesh.

The one you have to see

Two Bangladeshi Madridistas sat in the stands for a Champions League Final.

1 June 2024 — Wembley Stadium

Real Madrid vs. Borussia Dortmund. Not a stream, not a screening — an official ticket allocation, at UEFA-capped prices, through PMBD's own correspondence with Real Madrid's Departamento de Peñas.

Official Champions League away-match prices land at €50–60 under UEFA's price caps — access, not a resale-market gamble.

Beyond our own channels

The president has met us. So has the press.

PMBD representatives presenting a nakshi kantha to Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez in Jeddah
The president has met us in person — twice
At the Intercontinental Hotel, ahead of a Spanish Super Cup final, PMBD presented Florentino Pérez with a framed nakshi kantha and a Bangladesh national jersey — meeting Pérez alongside Roberto Carlos, Santiago Solari, Emilio Butragueño, and Pirri.

A year later, at the Hilton, PMBD returned with a second nakshi kantha — this time meeting Pérez alongside Santiago Solari, Emilio Butragueño, and Pirri.

Both Jeddah events are independently confirmed on realmadrid.com's own coverage of its annual peña gatherings — and Real Madrid's own official Facebook page posted this exact photo directly.

Real stories from supporters who have found their home in Peña Madridista Bangladesh.

Real Madrid has always been about hope and belief, but becoming a member of PMBD feels like bringing those memories into a shared home. I am grateful to finally stand with a community that truly understands this emotion. Hala Madrid, always.

This official group bridges the gap between Bangladesh and the Bernabéu, making the spirit of Real Madrid feel tangible right here at home. It's a place where my deepest passion finds a family and a way of life we all live together.

Becoming a member of Peña Madridista Bangladesh isn't just about supporting a club; it's about belonging to a family that shares the same pride and dreams. PMBD motivates me every day to stand with Madrid, no matter the distance.

Beyond football

In August 2024, when flooding hit the Feni region, PMBD collected and redirected funds for the people affected — 30,000 BDT distributed through the Mastul Foundation. Not every proof point here is about Real Madrid.
