Current status
Tickets are not on sale yet
At the time of writing, the International Cricket Council has not opened official ticket sales for the 2027 Cricket World Cup, co-hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia, and no official on-sale date has been confirmed. Any website or seller offering "official" tickets today should be treated with caution.
The most reliable thing you can do now is prepare. We keep our Cricket World Cup 2027 tickets hub updated as verified information is released, so you can act quickly and safely when sales are announced.
Know the difference
Official sales vs. resale
Official sales will run through the ICC and its authorised ticketing partners. This is the only route that guarantees genuine tickets at the prices set by the organisers. The specific platform for 2027 has not been confirmed, so wait for an official announcement before paying anyone.
Resale and third-party sellers — including social-media listings — carry real risks, particularly before official sales have even opened. Until official channels are confirmed, there is no legitimate resale market to buy from, so any such offer should be avoided.
Be ready
How to prepare before sales open
- 1 · Register your interest
- When official registration opens, sign up through the ICC's official channels so you receive verified notifications directly, rather than relying on second-hand information.
- 2 · Decide your matches
- Shortlist the matches and host cities you would most like to attend, with a few backups. Popular fixtures are likely to be in the highest demand, so flexibility helps.
- 3 · Prepare your details
- Have your identification and payment details ready in advance. High-demand sales can move quickly once they open, so being prepared matters more than acting fast on unofficial offers.
- 4 · Buy only through confirmed channels
- Wait for the ICC to confirm the official ticketing platform before paying anyone. Do not purchase from sellers claiming to offer official tickets ahead of an official announcement.
Stay safe
