Tickets have been in high demand for the event – more than 3 million ticket applications were received during the ballot.

The expansion of public tickets will be another step in ensuring that supporters have every opportunity to experience the T20 World Cup in person. “We are delighted to have worked with our commercial partners to be able to release these additional tickets to 51 matches to ensure that we are accommodating as many fans as possible at every ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 fixture,” said Chris Tetley, the ICC Head of Events.

Along with the tickets, hospitality packages will also be available for purchase, offering fans a premium experience at the matches, including private suites and individual food and beverage packages across the venues in the West Indies as well as the Nassau County International Stadium in New York.

Packages for Grand Prairie Cricket Stadium and Broward County Stadium will be released at a later date.
