Rugby World Cup Tickets on sale on the 15th

agoodusername

Anyone looking at buying in the pre-sale? The Irish games pack is a lot less than I expected.

175 for the category 4 package or 310 for the category, could be a lot worse

I'm in for the pre sale the 175 in the team pack includes a QF too Which is fantastic value to he fair to them.

I guess pricing has a lot to do with the pool games. Argentina is more expensive - presumably because they have England and Japan in their pool.

The category 4 areas look incredibly small so I imagine I'll have to settle for the more expensive sections, which still aren't shockingly priceed

No. On the other hand for s.pacific games Fiji, Tonga and Samoa are always good value.

Where did you see about the 1/4 included? I keep seeing 'ability to add quarter final if team makes it' - can you buy a pack with the 1/4 final included from 15th March?

That's how I read it. Group games and option to buy QF.

Just a heads up in case anyone gets caught out next Monday, only Mastercard is being accepted for the pre-sale on the 15th March apparently.

"Only Mastercard, Visa and CB cards are accepted on our website. Please note that from 15 to 17 March 2021, only Mastercard cards will be accepted."

Weird that the Ireland option doesn't give you the option to purchase the semi or final...

Going to try and get Irish pack but only interested in the 2 matches in Paris, if I get them I’ll make 2 weekend trips.

No ballot? Just every man for himself on the fifteenth? Assume the site is just going to fail straight away, right?

I am already getting PTSD from the 8 hour queues during the last RWC general sales...

Everytime I click "Activate your account" it just brings me to my user details.

I have no confirmation of anything actually working.

surely you could sort yourself with a prepaid mastercard before then?

quick google gives me https://www.swirlcard.com/

haven't used them but there's definitely a reputable prepaid mastercard operator out there

Same. I’m hoping that everything is good to go, but it would be nice to get some confirmation.

I also registered my card details a few days ago (I have a MasterCard) but now I cannot access the “my payment methods” section as it is greyed out.

Not the easiest website to use, but hopefully it works on the 15th. Fingers crossed.

Is there a way to see price of pool bundles including qf? Its probably obvious but had quick look and couldnt see it

You can pick up prepaid MasterCard/currency card in the post office, same day, just bring passport/driving licence and a utility bill.

Website is seriously confusing. Keeps telling me to activate my account even though I am already logged in?

Have you been able to pre register already? Where did you see about the qf being included? Couldn't spot that on the site.

Its says it's going to be an option in the team pack in the faq section under - What kind of tickets are available for purchase? It's going to be an add on option by the sound of things

Thanks, spotted that, looks like the standard bundle prices they're giving are just the pool games and if you wanted the qf on top of it, it would be extra alright.

Also the total price per bundle works out at 4 matches per the average price they're giving so guess it must not be included so.

Ive registered, but it wont let me put in my payment details ?

Yep anyones guess at the moment how much extra the qf ticket option may be!

Actually just came across this for anyone who might like to know in advance how much debt you'll be getting yourself into on Monday if you are lucky enough to get the chance to buy some tickets.....

Cat 4 with qf ticket will be €255 and Cat 3 €455.....anyone that can afford more than that here's the link for the prices

Those prices suddenly got a little spicy alright!

Not sure why you're all bothering. Sure we won't even be halfway through the first decade of the pandemic by the time this comes around

Nice tip! Picked one up this morning- pretty handy

Anyone know if you can buy multiple packs?

Four of us hoping to go so obviously would like to sit together, how does that work? Can I buy four packs on one account? Or even two and someone else buy two?

Can't find anything online.

Under the faqs:

"How many tickets can I order?

You can book up to 6 packs (including several matches) per order.

If you wish to purchase more tickets as an individual, we invite you to place multiple orders. Nevertheless, we remind you that contiguity of seats will not be guaranteed between different orders.

If you are a company, a club, a works council or an association, a dedicated page to purchase tickets will soon be put online."

Seating at a world cup is an absolute lucky dip

Eod100

Speaking of seats, this is rough description.

In each venue, 4 categories of seats are available. Generally at RWC 2023 venues the seating configuration is as described below. However it may differ between venues so please refer to the individual venue seating maps:

Category 1: Along the side of the pitch between the try lines
Category 2: A corner of the stadium
Category 3: Behind the posts in the mid-tier
Category 4: Behind the posts either in the lower or upper tier

I assume Cat 4 tickets will be like golddust.

I hope you can sell tickets on an exchange like previous tournaments. I might buy the Ireland pack but there's no chance I'll go to all four pool games.

Would say so alright, will be small allocation to begin with and with France being so easy to get to and the pent up demand with not being able to go to games say they will be snapped up quickly alright.

Hopefully there is a reselling platform. Doesn't seem to be anything official about one yet but could be shifting the tickets before announcing that I guess.

Shelflife

Looking at the city packs; anyone know how much choice we will have if we go for the 3 match option ?

Site allows update of (master)card details.

Shelflife

Just on the an Post FX Mastercards.

I believe that the total amount you can spend in a 24hr period is €2k just in case you had to get multiple packages that cost over that amount.

Is this a ballot or first come, first served?

Just realised my virtual and disposable cards on Revolut are MasterCard. Physical card is Visa. So if you've Revolut, sorted.

Got an email today:


RWC 2023 exclusive presale - Your invite



Then theres a note saying its your last change to register. I click on the link and it brings me to the home page with the 'activate your account' message.
My initials are in the top right corner now so I believe this is me activated, does that also count as registering?

Everyone I've spoken to has the same issue. It's bizarre.

Bit confusing alright but you should have got an email from France 2023 confirming activating shortly after. Think the one today might have been a generic reminder one for people who haven't yet registered.

But yeah but between that and basic spelling errors on the site they really should have tested it more.

Sheep Shagger

Seems like team packs are back, like the last time it was in France (don't think it has been repeated for a while?)

Think I've activated my account although no activation email received?
