Fans in Kenya can now purchase tickets for the 2024 African Nations Championship (CHAN 2024), which is set to take place from August 2 to 30. The much-anticipated tournament will be co-hosted by Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, and ticket sales have finally kicked off after weeks of speculation on when the process would begin.
Ticket sales officially began in Kenya on Monday, July 21, with fans able to buy them online. Regular tickets are priced at Ksh 200, VIP tickets at Ksh 500, and VVIP tickets at Ksh 1,000. Each ticket grants access to a single match during the month-long tournament. The ticketing process has been made convenient through the online portal, where Kenyan fans can easily secure their seats for upcoming matches.
For now, Ugandan and Tanzanian supporters will need to wait a bit longer as the ticketing schedules for their countries are expected to be announced soon. This gives Kenyan fans an advantage as they can purchase tickets early and secure spots for the most anticipated fixtures.
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) aims to make the tournament a success in East Africa, with ticket prices kept affordable to encourage maximum attendance. The strategy is geared toward ensuring that as many local fans as possible get the chance to enjoy live action and support their teams.
The CHAN 2024 tournament will open in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, with the first match and opening ceremony taking place at the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium. Nairobi will host the final match and closing ceremony, with key games in Kenya scheduled at the Kasarani and Nyayo Stadiums. Uganda will stage its matches at the Mandela National Stadium (Namboole) in Kampala, while Zanzibar’s Amaan Stadium will also host some group-stage matches.
This edition of CHAN is expected to bring together top home-based talents from across Africa, promising thrilling action and a festive football atmosphere. Fans are encouraged to purchase their tickets early to avoid last-minute rushes as the tournament draws closer. With the excitement building, CHAN 2024 is poised to be one of the most memorable football events in East Africa.
