The Premier Soccer League (PSL) has confirmed that tickets for the highly anticipated 2025 MTN8 Final will go on sale on Monday, 1 September.
The final, which will see Orlando Pirates take on Stellenbosch FC, is scheduled for Saturday, September 13 at the Mbombela Stadium.
Tickets will be available from 10h00am on Monday morning at Open Tickets outlets nationwide, including Shoprite, Checkers and uSave stores. Spectators may also purchase tickets online via www.opentickets.co.za.
General access tickets will be sold at only R100 each. To ensure fair distribution, ticket sales will be limited to a maximum of four tickets per person.
The PSL strongly urges members of the public to exercise caution and only purchase tickets through official channels. Tickets purchased from third parties will be invalid and will not grant entry to the stadium.
The Buccaneers advanced to the final when they beat rivals Mamelodi Sundowns 4-1 on penalties after their highly contested semi-final clash at the weekend. Stellies, on the other hand, cruised past Sekhukhune United with a 3-1 victory on aggregate over two legs.
The competition revolves around who emerges victorious and who remains the last. As of last season, the prize money for the competition is as follows: In a unique kind of arrangement, the winners get a whopping R10-million, while the rest of the seven teams that participated will pocket R1-million each.
The Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban has hosted seven cup finals in the last 10 years. Since 2020, Durban has hosted all the finals. SuperSport United defeated Highlands Park 1-0 at Orlando Stadium in 2019, marking the last final to take place elsewhere.
Mpumalanga residents will, however, experience the MTN8 final for the first time since 2016, when the now-defunct Bidvest Wits defeated Sundowns 3-0.
