A wave of excitement swept across the internet as tickets for the friendly match between Morocco and Tunisia, scheduled for June 6 at the Grand Stade de Fès, went on sale. The demand was staggering—Webook, the platform managing ticket sales, reported a flood of nearly 1.5 million connection attempts in just a few hours, all for an event with a capacity of only 45,000 seats. Unsurprisingly, the tickets vanished in record time.
This overwhelming response underscores just how much anticipation there is for the return of the Atlas Lions to Fès, a city that hasn’t hosted the national team in years. With interest running so high, organizers were quick to implement a cap on the number of tickets each buyer could purchase. The goal was twofold: to prevent ticket scalping and to ensure fairer access for genuine fans.
Sales officially opened on May 31 at 11 a.m. for both of Morocco’s upcoming matches in the country’s spiritual capital: the high-profile showdown with Tunisia on June 6, and a second match against Benin on June 9. While the Tunisia game sold out almost instantly, tickets for the Morocco-Benin fixture are still available through Webook’s website and app.
