Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) — Visa, a global leader in digital payments and official global sponsor of the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027™, has opened early ticket access for its cardholders.
The online presale will run from 15 to 17 September 2026, with general ticket sales starting on 18 September. This will allow Visa cardholders to purchase tickets before general sales begin and choose their seats in advance for one of Asia’s largest football tournaments.
In addition to early ticket access, Visa has prepared special opportunities for cardholders during the tournament. These include taking part in a pre-match draw ceremony, watching teams warm up and gaining access to the pitchside area.
Another part of the programme will be the Kids Program. More than 1,000 children aged 6 to 10 will have the opportunity to walk onto the pitch alongside renowned footballers.
“Football has a unique power to bring people together, and we are pleased to help fans get closer to the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027™,” said Tarek Abdalla, Visa’s Chief Marketing Officer for Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
According to him, the presale will give Visa cardholders an opportunity to be part of a major football event in Asia. The company also expects to welcome fans from across Asia and other regions to the tournament in Saudi Arabia.
To participate in the presale, Visa recommends that fans prepare their cards in advance and purchase tickets through the Ahlan App from 15 to 17 September 2026.
