With a little under 500 days to go until Rugby World Cup 2019 kicks off in Japan, the tournament has captured the imagination of domestic and international fans alike, with public tickets, supporter tours and hospitality sales programmes generating strong demand.
Excitement surrounding Asia’s first Rugby World Cup has been converted into more than 1.5 million ticket applications with demand exceeding supply for the number of tickets available during the initial team and stadium pack, rugby family, rugby friends and host city priority application phases.
With tournament organisers Japan Rugby 2019 targeting a total of 1.8 million ticket sales through all programs, the next major dates for fans to be aware of is the Front Row/Supporters’ Club priority ballot application phase from Saturday until to 15:59 on June 26.
Fans who are not yet a member are being urged not to miss out by signing-up via www.rugbyworldcup.com/supporters and creating a ticket registration account at www.rugbyworldcup.com/tickets. There is exceptional demand for Japan matches and the knock-out rounds, so fans should check the color-coded demand indicator on the ticketing website to see which matches offer the best-possible chance to access the showcase event.
The ballot phase is not a first come, first served scenario, applications made at any time during the window will have equal chances of success.
