How do I get tickets for Wales V New Zealand on 25 November?

Question

Last year I worked in Germany and played for the local rugby team. They wanted to tour 'England' and I managed to persuade them to tour in Wales and I think it would be a fantastic experience of Wales for them to see Wales V the All Blacks at the Millenium Stadium. I'm not however, a member of a rugby club or a 'comittee' or whatever. I've sent an e-mail and letter to the WRU and called their ticket line (ticketmaster-who don't have a clue) with no luck. Can anyone help me with this - there'll be 17 of them and i'm told that whatever tickets do go on sale will sell out within minutes.

Answer 1

eBay!

Answer 2

Unfortunately, nearly all the tickets will be sold to the Welsh clubs and their members. Very few (if any) will go on sale to the general public, and as you said, if they do, they're gone straight away.

Sadly, your only option may be to see if you can get any from people on the day (not touting scum necessarily, as some fans may sell theirs at face value if people are unable to go.) Another option is to check out some Welsh rugby sites a few weeks/days beforehand and see if any are offered via there.

Answer 3

Contact the Clubs you will be playing on tour. They will all be getting ticket allocations which will be shared out amongst their members by ballot or something similar. If you are playing three teams, that's only a maximum of 6 tickets per club. You will find they are fairly generous about this sort of thing especially as they will be entertaining you anyway.

Answer 4

I'm Welsh and rugby makes me YAWN. Its c**p.

If I wanted to watch big ugly men fondle each other I'd rent a g*y p**n video.

Come to Sophia Gardens and see a nice game of cricket instead.  Gentleman's game and all that.  Its the England AND WALES cricket board so you won't be "betraying" Wales or any shite like that.

Answer 5

www.ticketmaster.co.uk or your local club in Wales

Answer 6

I'm not sure you'd be able to buy that many even if it wasn't a sell out.  What about one of the lesser games in the autumn, like Canada?

Answer 7

check with Air Malaysia Airlines on the website LibertyTV.com

I ve seen flights London Auckland for 700 euros just few days ago.

Otherwise with Air New Zealand. I bought a flight London-L.A.-Auckland for 850 euros.

Through Singapore its cheap as well.
