Toronto soccer fans looking to secure tickets for the FIFA Fan Fest can now register online, with free general admission and premium packages priced between $100 and $300.

While basic entry is free, fans willing to pay can buy access to private lounges, terraces, faster entry lines and upgraded washrooms during the five-week festival hosted at Fort York and The Bentway.

From June 11 to July 19 fans can watch a total of 46 live match broadcasts alongside concerts with more than 20 performers.

Tickets can be purchased on Ticketmaster, starting at 10 a.m. Here’s a look at VIP tiers and a list of who will be taking that stage.

A look at VIP options

Fans looking for upgrades can pay $300 for the Casamigos Clubhouse, which includes a private climate-controlled double-decker lounge, patio space, expedited entry and prime views of the main stage and screen.

A $150 Pitchside Terrace offers a private viewing area overlooking the grounds, while the $100 Garden Pavilion includes a shaded open-air space, private washrooms and food and beverage access for purchase.

Across all premium tiers, fans must pay for food and drinks.

Free entry returns after backlash

Earlier this year, the City of Toronto which is the primary host and coordinator for the festival, faced criticism over plans to charge all fans $10 for admission.

At the time, following public outcry, Mayor Olivia Chow insisted that “fan fest should be free,” adding that the festival should serve as an accessible alternative for residents and tourists during the World Cup.

While not everyone may get the chance to visit the city’s Fan Fest, the mayor also noted that there will be plenty of other opportunities to get in on the action.

“By the way, the City of Toronto have given small grants to local business improvement area, local soccer clubs. They are hosting free watch party all across Toronto, every ward will have a watch party,” she said at the time.

Who will be performing?

Some of the musicians and artists expected to perform at the fan festival include Brampton-raised singer Alessia Cara as well as bands like Bedouin Soundclash, Big Wreck and Walk off the Earth.

The city says that the grounds will also feature a custom soccer mini-pitch featuring the artwork of Indigenous artist Alanah Astehtsi’ Otsistóhkwaˀ Jewel.
