When can I apply for Tickets?

Posted February 4th, 2010 | Tags: , , , | Comment »

In order to ensure a fair and transparent allocation of tickets, the procedure for ticket allocation for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ has been divided into five phases. These phases are intended to allow periods when tickets are allocated based on random selection draws and periods when tickets are allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. These phases are described in more detail below. This system was designed to address the fact that demand for tickets to many matches will exceed ticket supply, and to provide as many fans as possible with tickets.

Between the individual phases no applications can be submitted.

The dates given below are all subject to possible change without prior notice.
