Croatian fans will be able to apply for tickets to watch their team’s games at next summer’s Euro when they go on sale exclusively at EURO2020.com on Wednesday 4 December at 14:00 CET. 

Supporters will have until 14:00 CET on 18 December to snap up these tickets for the tournament, which celebrates 60 years of the UEFA European Football Championship, with the final at the world’s most famous football ground, Wembley Stadium in London. 

“Over half the tickets being made available for all games will be in the cheapest price category, with prices for group stage matches starting at €30 (in Baku, Bucharest and Budapest) and €50 in the other host cities. This latest round of sales follows the hugely successful general public ticket sales in summer 2019, when 19.3 million ticket requests were received between 12 June and 12 July 2019 for the 1.5 million tickets on offer. UEFA EURO 2020 is the biggest UEFA European Football Championship ever, with over 3 million tickets available, 82% of which are allocated to all fans,” UEFA said in a statement. 

Croatia will play in Group D in London and Glasgow with England, Czech Republic and the Path C play-off group winner (Scotland/Israel/Serbia/Norway).

Matches

14 June 2020 – 3 pm – England vs Croatia (Wembley, London)
19 June 2020 – 6 pm Croatia vs Czech Republic (Hampden Park, Glasgow)
23 June 2020 – 9 pm Croatia vs Norway, Scotland, Serbia or Israel (Hampden Park, Glasgow)

This means Croatia and England will share 28,000 tickets for the opening match at Wembley. 

“The FAs who play against each other will split the available tickers 50-50, with the English as hosts receiving 1,000 more tickets,” Nikša Martinac from Croatian FA told 24sata. 

So Croatian fans can expect around 14,000 tickets for the opening match and 10,000 tickets for the last two group matches in Glasgow. 

A quarter of the tickets for the Glasgow matches which will be available to the Croatian FA, around 2,500, will be set aside for loyal fans who purchased tickets in the last three cycles for Euro 2016 in France, World Cup 2018 in Russia and the Nations League. Those fans who are not part of that allocation will go into the draw via UEFA. 

“By the end of January, those who have registered will be notified. Who does not make it into the draw will have a chance if somebody does not pay for their tickets,” Martinac said.

The football association (FA) of each qualifying team has its own ticket application conditions for its team’s fans, who will be able to apply for tickets for group stage matches or ‘Follow my Team’ tickets, which allow fans to attend a knockout stage match of their team independently of the location of the match. If the team is eliminated before that match, fans will be reimbursed for the corresponding ticket. 

For all matches where demand exceeds supply, tickets will be allocated in accordance with the process set by each FA. All applicants who apply for tickets will be notified of the outcome by the end of January 2020. 

Continuing the UEFA EURO 2020 Fans First ticket strategy launched in May 2019, fans of all qualified teams can apply for Fans First tickets for the semi-finals and final, priced at only €85 and €95 respectively. Fans First tickets will be sold as conditional tickets, with supporters being reimbursed if their team is knocked out before the semi-final or final. 

More tickets available for general public 

Fans who do not meet the criteria set by their FA or who do not follow a specific a team are now also encouraged again to apply via the public ballot on EURO2020.com/tickets, where the next tranche of tickets will also be available from 4 December 2019 at 14:00 CET. 

To recognise the valuable contribution of fans to football, and continuing the extremely successful Fans First programme launched in May 2019, unsuccessful applicants may be invited (based on their ballot ranking) to purchase any available tickets at a later stage (due to failed payments or ticket returns). 

Accessibility tickets for fans requiring easy access seats, as well as for those who use a wheelchair, will be sold at the same price as the lowest price category 3 tickets, regardless of the seat position.
