After securing their spot in the tournament for the first time since 2014, the Black Stars face Panama in Toronto, England in Boston, and Croatia in Philadelphia, matches that promise electric atmospheres and a shot at the expanded Round of 32.
Kicking off the campaign on June 17 in Toronto against Panama, fans can purchase Category 1 seats for $450 (GHS 5,145), Category 2 for $380 (GHS 4,345), and more affordable Category 3 options at $140 (GHS 1,600).
Easy access tickets, designed for added support, mirror the top-tier price at $450. This opener sets the tone for Ghana’s ambitious run, with supporters urged to act fast amid buzzing anticipation.
The spotlight intensifies on June 23 in Boston, where a blockbuster clash against England awaits, drawing massive crowds from the U.S. East Coast’s vibrant Ghanaian diaspora.
Prices peak here with Category 1 at $600 (GHS 6,860), Category 2 at $430 (GHS 4,916), and Category 3 at $220 (GHS 2,515), a premium reflecting the fierce rivalry and star power on display.
