Cricket fans in India can look forward to one of the most accessible match-going experiences at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, with ticket prices at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens ranging from as low as ₹100 for select group-stage matches to ₹10,000 for premium hospitality during high-stakes knockout games.

The pricing structure, released by the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB), aims to balance affordability with demand as the iconic venue prepares to host marquee fixtures.

Eden Gardens is scheduled to stage multiple group games, at least one Super 8 match, and Semifinal 1 (subject to qualification scenarios), making it one of the tournament’s most significant venues.

For early group-stage matches involving teams like Bangladesh, Italy, England and West Indies, CAB has kept ticket prices deliberately low to ensure strong attendance and inclusivity.

For matches such as Bangladesh vs Italy, England vs Italy, and West Indies vs Italy, the pricing slabs are:

These prices make Eden Gardens one of the most affordable World Cup venues globally, particularly for fans who prefer the atmosphere of upper-tier seating.

For higher-profile group encounters such as West Indies vs Bangladesh and England vs Bangladesh, ticket prices are slightly elevated to reflect increased interest, while still offering a wide range of options.

The revised slabs for marquee group games are:

Premium Hospitality (B Premium): ₹5,000

Even for these premium group fixtures, entry-level tickets remain well within reach for most fans.

As the tournament moves into its decisive phase, ticket prices increase accordingly. Eden Gardens is expected to host a Super 8 match – potentially involving India – and the first semifinal, driving significant demand.

The pricing structure for Super 8 and semifinal matches is:

For night matches under lights at Eden Gardens, an entry price of ₹900 for knockout fixtures is considered highly competitive by international standards.
