Almost 65% of the stadium’s total capacity of 60,500 will be sold for Rs. 100/-. We believe that fair pricing of tickets will allow people at large to be touched by football, and the game’s popularity will resonate across the state. Fans are requested to buy tickets only through our official partners. We are distributing some free tickets subject to availability to children and offering 50% discount on gallery tickets with the aim of popularising and developing the sport amongst children.”
Corporate organisations can also do block booking of tickets as part of their branding initiatives. Ten corporate air conditioned boxes have been provided – each with a capacity of around 40-60 seats with provision for food and beverage. The cost of each box is Rs. 1 lakh per match.
