This move follows the rapid depletion of initial ticket stocks, which were previously made available via the District app with prices spanning from Rs 999 to Rs 15,000.

The allocated seats are positioned in the B2 and D2 sections of the middle tier, located directly behind the goalposts. In addition to the three major clubs, the discounted tickets will also be accessible to other clubs affiliated with the IFA, ensuring a broad reach across the local football community.
Expanding the Fan Experience Beyond the Stadium
Beyond the immediate ticket allocation for the Brazil match, the AIFF is looking to broaden the reach of the national team's upcoming fixtures. The federation is currently developing plans to establish fan parks across various districts, allowing supporters who cannot attend the matches in person to gather and watch the action on big screens.
Chaubey highlighted that these fan parks are designed to engage younger audiences, particularly academy players, by providing a communal viewing experience. This initiative is part of a wider effort to promote grassroots football and maintain momentum throughout the national team's busy schedule. India is set to play Panama in Bengaluru on September 25, before heading to Kolkata for the Brazil encounter on October 3 and a subsequent match against Uruguay on October 6.
