Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) started selling tickets for the grand opening ceremony and concert of Bangabandhu Bangladesh Premier Leauge (BPL) which will be held at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on December 08 , reports UNB.
Sheikh Sohel, the chairman of BPL governing council told media that they have started selling tickets for the opening ceremony and concert for 8000 spectators.
But 3000 tickets will be sent to several club officials, former cricketers and government authorities as complementary. It means the BCB will sell only 5000 tickets for the general spectators, he said.
"We are arranging this programme for only 8000 people. We are creating a big stage in the outfield which means we are unable to open every gallery for the spectators," Sohel told the media.
He also said that Bangladesh rockstar James will perform in the event along with popstar Momtaz. Besides Bollywood stars Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Sonu Nigam and KailashKher will also perform in the event.
The lowest price of the ticket is 1,000 BDT while the highest price is 10,000 BDT. The tickets can be bought from Shre-e-Bangla National Stadium, Shaheed Suhrawordy Indoor Stadium, The Westin Dhaka, Gulshan, Fahim Music, Banani and Cafe Eden, Gulshan. For the online buyers, the tickets are available at shohoz.com, paypoint.com.bd and gadgetbangla.com, confirmed BCB.
The special edition of BPL will kick off on December 11 at Sher-e-Bangla in the city. A total of seven teams will be fighting for the title in this prestigious T20 event of the country.
Along with the top Bangladeshi cricketers, many international stars will also show their cricketing prowess at the event.
