During the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025, spectators are not allowed to bring certain items into stadiums. To guarantee a hassle-free experience, fans who intend to attend the stadiums to see their favorite teams play in the 18th edition of the lucrative league should keep in mind a few of the tips listed in this article.
This season, the gates for all IPL matches will open roughly three hours before to kickoff.
If the ticket’s barcode has been altered, or if it has been torn, vandalized, destroyed, or altered in any other manner, entry will be denied. Some teams, such as the Mumbai Indians, have made the decision that admission to their home stadium will no longer require actual tickets. At the time of purchase, review the information in the ticket section.
The fact that a fan cannot leave the stadium and then return is a crucial one. For the sake of clarity, if a fan is forced to leave the stadium after entering for any reason, he will not be permitted to reenter using the same ticket. The ticket holder can only enter the section of the stadium where the designated seat is located; they are not permitted to enter any other areas of the stadium. Additionally, refunds will only be given in the event that the game is called off or abandoned before a ball is bowled.
Bottles, lighters, tins/cans, musical instruments, flammable, toxic, legal, or hazardous substances, metal containers, firecrackers, fireworks, weapons, motorcycle helmets, bags, or any other item (chosen at the organizer’s discretion) that could endanger or unnecessarily annoy anyone else are prohibited from entering the stadium. Food from outside will not be permitted. It is not permitted to bring alcohol inside the stadium. The stadium does not permit drinking or smoking.
Children who are two years of age or older must have their own ticket, and anyone under the age of eighteen must be accompanied by and continuously watched over by an adult who is also a match ticket holder.
