The highly anticipated friendly match between Bayern Munich and Ajax will take place on January 5, 2027, at the Raila Odinga International Stadium in Talanta Sports City. Both European clubs have committed to fielding their strongest possible first-team line-ups for the historic encounter. The Ministry of Youth Affairs, Creative Economy and Sports announced that tickets for the match will be available exclusively through the official Talanta Sports City website.

Ticket sales for the Bayern Munich vs Ajax match began on Thursday, November 5, at 6pm. Prices for the tickets start at Sh2,500, and they will be released in phases across multiple seating categories. Supporters have been encouraged to purchase tickets during the announced sales windows, as availability in sold-out categories cannot be guaranteed in subsequent phases.

Fans can purchase tickets through the official Talanta Sports City website by selecting the match and their preferred seating category. The platform allows supporters to select the number of tickets they want before using the 'Find my seats' option to choose available seats. Groups of up to four people can secure seats side by side, while larger groups will be allocated seating blocks close to one another.

Payments for the tickets can be made through M-Pesa or a debit or credit card. The platform displays the full amount, including the processing fee, before the buyer completes the transaction. Tickets are sent to buyers through SMS and email immediately after successful payment, and supporters can also retrieve their tickets through the website's 'My tickets' section.

Organisers have announced a no-re-entry policy for the inaugural match, meaning supporters who enter the stadium and have their tickets scanned will not be allowed to leave and return using the same ticket. Fans have therefore been advised to ensure they have everything they need before entering the venue.

The ministry has warned supporters against purchasing tickets through unofficial channels, urging them to use the designated website and make payments only to verified accounts to avoid fraudulent transactions. Premium hospitality packages, including skyboxes, will also be available for supporters seeking exclusive matchday experiences.

Bayern Munich and Ajax have made a 5,000 ticket reservation as they officially go on sale. The government has also promised to host other high-profile matches in Kenya, including an English Premier League match between Arsenal and Manchester United.
