Four stadiums, three Host Cities, 24 nations and 52 matches! Starting today at 12:00 (midday) Brasília time, all fans will be able to apply for tickets for the first-ever FIFA U-17 World Cup to be hosted by Brazil.

Tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis in two categories at affordable prices starting at five Brazilian real. All tickets purchased by 27 September will benefit from a 50 per cent discount on the standard price. Every ticket will provide access to the two matches played in the respective double-header.

While the only official platform on which to secure tickets will be FIFA.com/tickets, fans will also be able to apply for tickets over the counter, in the host stadiums from 23 October until 17 November.

“Every kid dreams of playing for their country at a World Cup. It’s a unique opportunity and they have to enjoy it, but they also have to be focused and do a good job because not everyone gets to be a world champion,” commented Brazil’s goalkeeping great and FIFA Legend Julio Cesar, one of the football icons that the world first became aware of at the FIFA U-17 World Cup along with Ronaldinho, Neymar, Toni Kroos, Celestine Babayaro and Cesc Fàbregas, among many others.

“I can only encourage Brazilian and international fans to secure their tickets and support a new generation of football stars.”

Besides the Estádio Bezerrão in Brasília, Goiânia’s Estádio da Serrinha and Estádio Olímpico as well as Vitória’s (Cariacica) Estádio Kléber Andrade will stage the youth showpiece.
