Tickets for the semi-finals and final of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 have officially gone on sale. Fans can start booking their seats from Tuesday, February 24, at 7 PM (IST) through the official website, tickets.t20worldcup.com. The announcement has created excitement among cricket lovers who are eager to watch the biggest matches of the tournament live. The first semi-final will be played on March 4, followed by the second semi-final on March 5. The grand final is scheduled for March 8. With top teams competing for the trophy, demand for tickets is expected to be very high. However, the venue for some of these matches is still not fully confirmed. The ICC has introduced flexible venue arrangements depending on which teams qualify for the knockout stage, especially involving Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Two possible venues for the first semi-final The venue for the first semi-final has not been finalized yet. It will be held either at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo or at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The final decision will depend on the teams that reach the semi-final stage. Meanwhile, the second semi-final has already been confirmed. It will take place at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on March 5. Special venue rules based on team qualification The ICC has set clear conditions for deciding the venue of the first semi-final: Pakistan’s rule: If Pakistan qualify for the semi-final, they will play the first semi-final in Colombo on March 4. Sri Lanka’s rule: If Pakistan do not qualify but Sri Lanka reach the semi-final and are not scheduled to face India, the match will be held in Colombo. Kolkata’s rule: If neither of these situations occurs, or if India and Sri Lanka face each other, the first semi-final will be played at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Final venue also depends on Pakistan The final of the tournament will be played on March 8, but the host city will depend on Pakistan’s progress. If Pakistan qualify for the final, the match will be held in Colombo. If Pakistan do not reach the final, the title clash will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Full refund available if venue changes To protect fans, the ICC has introduced a refund policy. If someone buys a ticket for a venue that is later changed, the full ticket amount will be refunded. This ensures that fans do not lose money due to venue adjustments. How fans can book tickets? Fans can purchase tickets by visiting the official ICC ticket portal, tickets.t20worldcup.com. Tickets for all categories are now available, and fans are advised to book early to secure their seats for the most important matches of the tournament.
