With the 2025 FMF Inter-District Championship (IDC) just a few weeks away, excitement is building as ticket sales have officially begun. Held at the iconic 4R Stadium, Govind Park in Ba, the event promises to offer fans an exhilarating football experience from October 7-12. In an effort to enhance fan experience, the Fiji Football Association has introduced an exclusive VVIP five-day package. Anushil Kumar, the general manager of operations, urged fans to purchase tickets early due to the limited availability of premium seating.
The VVIP package, priced at $200, provides fans with reserved leather seats, a souvenir tournament magazine, and complimentary bottled water each day of the event. Fans holding these tickets will have their seats reserved for the entire duration of the tournament, ensuring comfort and convenience whether they arrive early or just in time for the match.
In addition to the VVIP offering, a VIP seating package will soon be available. Positioned in the D-Section of 4R Stadium, these bucket-style reserved seats are priced at $150 for all five days. An enticing 20% early bird discount reduces the cost to $120 for fans who purchase their tickets by September 30. This tiered pricing and seat reservation strategy not only promises a premium live sporting event experience but also illustrates a commitment to increasing accessibility and participation across different segments of the fanbase.
Drawing on lessons from past tournaments, such as efforts by the Nadi Football Association to boost community engagement and inclusivity through structured pricing, the upcoming IDC tournament continues to highlight the importance of creating an appealing and accessible atmosphere for football fans. The anticipation is palpable, as the 4R Stadium prepares to welcome spectators for a week filled with competitive spirit and community celebration.
