Visa cardholders will get early access to tickets for the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027 through a pre-sale window running from September 15 to 17, 2026, before general sales open on September 18. Tickets are available through the Ahlan App.
Visa is the tournament’s Official Global Supporter. Beyond the pre-sale, the company says it is preparing a range of experiences for eligible cardholders during the tournament itself, including coin toss appearances, warm-up access, and pitch-side opportunities.
A dedicated kids programme will give more than 1,000 young fans aged 6 to 10 the chance to walk onto the pitch alongside players.
“Football has a unique power to bring people together, and we are proud to help fans get closer to the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027. Through this pre-sale, Visa cardholders will have the opportunity to be part of an unforgettable celebration of Asian football. We look forward to helping welcome fans from across Asia and beyond to a major sporting event in Saudi Arabia,” Tarek Abdalla, Chief Marketing Officer for Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East and Africa at Visa said in a statement.
The AFC Asian Cup is one of the largest football tournaments in the world by viewership. Saudi Arabia’s hosting of the 2027 edition follows a period of significant investment by the kingdom in major international sporting events.
