Tickets for the highly anticipated Unity Cup semi-final clash between Nigeria and Ghana have officially gone on sale, with prices for premium seating at the Gtech Community Stadium in West London reaching as high as N532,038.

The Super Eagles made the announcement on X, confirming that ticket sales are now live for the Afro-Caribbean Invitational Tournament, which will feature Nigeria, Ghana, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago. The competition, branded as “The Unity Cup: The Best in the West,” is set to take place in the final week of May 2025.

Nigeria will square off with their fierce rivals Ghana in the second semi-final on Wednesday, May 28, while the opening match of the tournament will be held a day earlier, on May 27, with Jamaica facing Trinidad and Tobago. The tournament will conclude on Saturday, May 31, with both the third-place match and the final scheduled to be played on the same day, ensuring all four teams are involved in the final fixtures.

Priority access tickets for the semi-final have already sold out, leaving only general sale tickets available for fans who want to witness the exciting games live. According to the official announcement, general sale tickets for the semi-final match begin at N31,922 (£15) for standard seating in sections such as N121, N126, and N127.

However, for those looking for a more exclusive experience, tickets for premium sections like S204 and S303, located in the South Stand, are priced at N532,038 (£250). As the tournament progresses to the final matchday, which will feature both the third-place playoff and the final, ticket prices will increase significantly, reaching up to N744,853 (£350) for combined access to both matches.

The South Stand, which serves as the stadium’s central operations hub, is the most expensive section and is reserved for neutral VIPs, media personnel, match officials, and hospitality guests from the participating countries.

The Gtech Community Stadium, the venue for the entire tournament, is the home of Premier League club Brentford. Opened in 2020, the stadium has a seating capacity of 17,250 and is part of a broader regeneration project in West London. It also served as one of the host venues during the UEFA Women’s Euro 2022.

The Unity Cup, first launched in 2002 with the iconic “NiJam” clash between Nigeria and Jamaica, has grown to become a symbol of cultural unity and celebration through football. Marcus Gayle, former Jamaican international and Brentford FC ambassador, expressed his excitement for the event, calling it an excellent platform for players to showcase their talent and for communities to come together in celebration.
