Today is the day the Final Sales Phase for 2010 World Cup Tickets Kicks off. This is the first time that South African soccer fans can go to Checkers or FNB and buy tickets over the counter (well almost)

World Cup Ticketing Centers

World Cup ticketing centres in each of the nine host cities will also open and start the over-the-counter sales of tickets. 2010 World Cup tickets will also be on sale at First National Bank Branches Across the Country.

In total there will be five different sales channels starting on Thursday and will run through until the last day of the tournament on July 11th.

* 11 ticketing centres across the Host Cities, open seven days a week from 9.00 until 18.00 local time.
* Approx. 600 FNB branches nationwide, open five days a week from 9.00 am this Thursday. You can order tickets, make payment and get ticket confirmation immediately; the tickets need to be collected at the FIFA ticketing centres or Shoprite/Checkers sales points.
* The tournament website at www.FIFA.com, starting from 6.00pm on 15 April.
* The call centre hotline. From within South Africa ring 083 123 2010 and from overseas ring +41 4458 32010. This opens up from 6.00pm on Thursday April 15th and is open seven days a week from 8.00am until 10.00pm.
* 18 Shoprite/Checkers sales points. These will be open from 9.00am on April 19th and open seven days a week.

There are not that many tickets left – you really do have to pick up that phone or visit that website.

On Thursday, tickets are going to start selling out much quicker than they have to date so get to your nearest location and secure your tickets for the 2010 World Cup.
