Harambee Stars are gearing up for their opening match in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifiers, where they will face Zimbabwe on Friday, 6 September.
The match is scheduled to take place at the Nelson Mandela Stadium in Namboole, Uganda, with kickoff set for 4 PM.
Due to the ongoing renovations at Kenya’s Kasarani Stadium and the construction of Talanta Sports City in preparation for the 2027 AFCON, Kenya has been forced to host their home matches in Uganda.
Nyayo Stadium, which received a conditional permit to host CAF inter-club preliminary rounds, will be closed after 15th September and is not cleared to host international matches.
In light of these circumstances, the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has announced ticketing details for the highly anticipated clash against Zimbabwe. Fans can purchase tickets through the Nelson Mandela Stadium’s official portal here, with three ticket categories available:
Ordinary Tickets: Priced at approximately Ksh520.
VIP Tickets: Priced at approximately Ksh1,730.
VVIP Tickets: Priced at approximately Ksh3,500.
Purchasing tickets is a straightforward process. After visiting the stadium’s official website, fans will find the match prominently displayed on the homepage.
By clicking the “book” tab, they can select from the three available ticket categories. Additionally, fans have the option to choose their preferred seating section within the stadium, which is displayed on the right-hand side of the page.
Once the desired ticket and seating section have been selected, fans can proceed by clicking the “Continue” button located at the bottom right-hand side of the page.
The next step requires filling in personal details, including name, email address, and phone number. Upon checking out, fans will have the option to choose their preferred payment method, either by card payment or mobile money. After completing the payment, the tickets will be sent directly to the provided email address.
