CAN 2025: CAF launches ticket sales, check prices and how to pay

The official ticket sales for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco kicked off this Monday, October 13. Find out how to secure your seat.

For the first lucky fans, an exclusive 48-hour pre-sale of tickets for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations is underway. This window is reserved for Visa cardholders, who get priority access from October 13 at 9:00 a.m. until October 15 at the same time, before ticket sales open up to the general public with all other payment methods accepted.

To ensure a smooth and connected fan experience, the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) has launched the YALLA app, a must-have platform for supporters. Through this app, fans can obtain their Fan ID—required to purchase tickets—as well as an e-visa/AEVM to enter Morocco. Keep in mind that each Fan ID allows the purchase of only one ticket per match. Once the Fan ID is received, Visa cardholders can head to the official website tickets.cafonline.com to make their purchases.

How much does a CAN 2025 ticket cost?

CAF has unveiled the first ticket prices for CAN 2025. The opening match between Morocco and Comoros is among the hottest tickets: 500 dirhams (about €45) for category 1, 300 MAD (about €27) for category 2, and 150 MAD (about €13.50) for category 3. For most group stage matches, prices will range between 100 and 300 dirhams depending on the category (roughly €10 to €30), but seven matches will be priced slightly higher than usual. These include Morocco's clashes with Mali and Zambia, as well as Egypt vs. South Africa, Nigeria vs. Tunisia, Algeria vs. Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast vs. Cameroon, and Senegal vs. DR Congo. For these fixtures, expect to pay between 100 and 400 dirhams depending on the category (around €10 to €38).

Ticket prices for the round of 16 will range from 150 to 500 dirhams (approx. €15 to €50), for the quarter-finals from 200 to 600 dirhams (€18 to €57), and for the semi-finals from 300 to 800 dirhams (€30 to €75). The grand final, unsurprisingly, will be the most expensive: 900 MAD (about €81) for category 1, 600 MAD (about €54) for category 2, and 400 MAD (about €36) for category 3.
