Tips For Match Day and Ticket Booking

Follow these simple tips to enjoy a smooth match experience:

  • Book your tickets early on the District app, as Guwahati matches sell out quickly due to the 40,000 capacity and RR’s growing Northeast fanbase. 
  • Since tickets are M-tickets and only accessible in the District app’s profile section, make sure you install the app, set up your account, and pre-save your payment method before the sale opens. 
  • Any child 2 years old and above must have their own full-price ticket to enter the ACA Stadium. 
  • Gates open 3 hours before the match (4:30 PM for a 7:30 PM start), and traffic around the stadium gets heavy on match nights. Reach the stadium early to avoid long entry queues.
  • Keep a valid government-issued ID, such as Aadhaar, PAN, or Passport, ready, as it may be required for verification at the entry gate.
  • Follow all security guidelines; no outside food, sharp objects, or large bags are allowed.
