Cricket fans across Antigua and Barbuda and the wider Caribbean are being called to action by the Antigua and Barbuda Falcons, who have officially opened ticket bookings for the upcoming 2026 Republic Bank Caribbean Premier League (CPL) season. The franchise is urging supporters to secure their spots online early to experience what is widely regarded as the most energetic cricket competition in the Western Hemisphere.
Organizers are aiming to turn the iconic Sir Vivian Richards Stadium into a multi-faceted celebration that blends elite cricket with Caribbean cultural heritage, live music, and collective community spirit. From the rhythmic beats of local iron bands to sea of national flags across the stands and non-stop crowd energy, every Falcons home match is set to deliver the one-of-a-kind atmosphere that has earned the CPL its nickname as the ‘biggest party in sport’.
Designed to be accessible for fans of all ages and budgets, the ticketing structure caters to casual attendees and dedicated season supporters alike. General admission entry to the grounds starts at just EC$16, with North Stand tickets priced at EC$20 and premium South Stand seats available for EC$32. This affordable pricing model means families can enjoy multiple days of cricket and entertainment without excessive cost, welcoming everyone from young children to long-time cricket fans.
For the most dedicated Falcons supporters, discounted multi-match season packages are also available. The three-match package is priced from EC$40, while a full four-match package covering all home games costs just EC$55. The Falcons’ 2026 home fixture list kicks off on August 20 against the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots, followed by clashes with Trinbago Knight Riders on August 22, Guyana Amazon Warriors on August 23, and Barbados Tridents on August 25.
Adding to the carnival-style experience, the CPL’s popular Party Stand will return for the 2026 season. Tickets for this high-energy fan section will be released for purchase at a later date, with additional details expected to be announced in the coming months.
