Cricket Australia Breaks Single-Day Ticket Sales Record for 2025-26 Ashes Series
Cricket Australia has shattered its previous single-day ticket sales record by selling over 220,000 tickets on the first day of the 2025-26 Men’s Ashes series pre-sale, more than doubling the previous record set in 2017-18. The biggest demand was for marquee events such as the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground and the first-ever day-night Ashes Test at the Gabba. The unprecedented fan enthusiasm caused technical issues on the ticketing platform, with over 200,000 users in virtual queues and many fans facing difficulties during the purchase process. Cricket Australia CEO Todd Greenberg hailed the response as remarkable and urged fans to secure tickets quickly before allocations run out, emphasizing the significance of the Ashes in Australia’s sporting culture. The general public sale begins on June 13, following the priority pre-sale that runs until June 12, with fans still able to register for pre-sale access. Alongside the Ashes, the summer will feature tours by India and South Africa, as well as a multi-format women’s series, adding to the excitement of a packed international cricket season.
