ST JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC – Organisers are anticipating a quick up-take of party stand tickets after they went on sale yesterday for this June’s Twenty20 World Cup.
Fans will be able to purchase tickets on the tournament website, tickets.t20worldcup.com, and from box offices “in the coming weeks”, to see the 39 games across the six Caribbean venues for the June 1-29 showpiece.
Prices start at US$25 for the basic party stand tickets while standard party-stand tickets start from US$100, with prices varying depending on the match and venue.
“The launch of party-stand tickets for the Men’s T20 World Cup is something fans have been asking about and now they can get their hands on them through our website,” said tournament director, Fawwaz Baksh.
“Tickets will also be available at box offices across the Caribbean in the coming weeks, and with party-stand ticket bundles available for the semi-finals and final, we anticipate these will go fast.
“No one does a Carnival Cricket party better than the West Indies, and for the World Cup fans can expect an out-of-this-world party experience at each venue, while watching the world’s greatest cricketers on show.”
Party stand tickets for the semi-finals in Trinidad & Tobago and Guyana, the final in Barbados and other selected matches are being offered as packaged bundles, with organisers advising that purchasing party stand venue packages was “the easiest way” to secure tickets for the three decisive games of the tournament. Hospitality packages are also available for all Caribbean fixtures and for all eight matches scheduled for New York. Antigua and Barbuda, St Lucia and St Vincent and the Grenadines are the other countries poised to host games on the Caribbean leg of the showpiece.
A record 20 teams will contest the tournament, with games also being played in Texas and Florida as the United States feature as co-hosts for the first time.
