About 250,000 tickets for 43 of the 51 matches will be available at that price in France, while the most expensive seat for the final at the Stade de France €895.

The four ”prestige matches” of the tournament will be slightly more costly, These games include the final, the opening match and the semifinals. Tickets for the semis range from €65-€495, while the nosebleed seats for the competition’s opener will set you back €75, with the premium seats costing €595.
