GFF Says ‘Flaws Fixed’, UEFA Super Cup Tickets to Go on Sale for Georgia on Jun.30

The Georgian Football Federation (GFF) said that the online ticketing service provider Biletebi.ge has “fixed” problems and will start the sale of 24,000 tickets locally in Georgia for the UEFA Super Cup match in Tbilisi from the morning of June 30.
 
GFF also said that Biletebi.ge will start international sales of the remaining tickets for football fans from outside Georgia from 9am CET on July 1.

The process was delayed for more than a week after the Tbilisi-based Biletebi.ge website, an exclusive retailer of over 29,000 entry tickets to the 54,000-seat Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena for the UEFA Super Cup, crashed as it failed to handle online traffic.

UEFA Champions League winner FC Barcelona will face Sevilla FC, the winner of UEFA Europa League, in an all-Spanish UEFA Super Cup in Tbilisi on August 11 – the highest profile international football match to be hosted in Georgia.

“Biletebi.ge has fixed all the flaws and I hope there will be no failings anymore,” Zviad Sichinava, the President of the Georgian Football Federation, said on Monday.

“Our request [to UEFA] to allocate 24,000 tickets for [football] fans in Georgia has been met and Biletebi.ge will start selling those tickets from 9am local time tomorrow,” he added.

The European football’s governing body awarded Tbilisi to host its Super Cup match in June, 2012.

Earlier this year, UEFA announced about selecting Georgia as a host of as a host of final tournament of the European Under-19 Championship in 2017.
