Budget-Saving Tips
- Book Early: Accommodation and flights are typically cheapest when booked 6-12 months in advance. Prices increase significantly closer to the event.
- Consider Alternative Cities: Staying in neighboring cities and traveling to matches can save significantly on accommodation costs.
- Group Accommodations: Sharing apartments or Airbnb rentals with other fans can reduce costs.
- Public Transportation: Use public transit instead of taxis or rental cars when possible.
- Eat Like a Local: Street food and local restaurants are often much cheaper than tourist areas and stadium concessions.
- Fan Festivals: Many fan zones offer free entry, so you can watch matches there instead of buying tickets for every game.
- Flexible Dates: If possible, avoid peak match days for travel to get better flight and hotel rates.
- Travel Insurance: Protect your investment with travel insurance in case of cancellations or emergencies.
