A mobile ticket office with three pay stations will be positioned in the car park opposite Hungry Lion to assist with store sales from Wednesday 1st June 2016. This should combat ticket traffic and keep queuing time to a minimum.

We continue to urge Batswana all over the country to buy tickets in time, and not to leave it until the last minute to avoid overcrowding at the ticket outlets and the inconvenience of missing out as tickets get sold out. This will be a Grade A match where we should not leave anything to chance. Tickets sell for P100 (Grand Stand), P50 (Eastern Stand) and P30 (behind the goalposts).
