In order to further encourage spectators at the three remaining HBL Pakistan Super League venues, discounted tickets for students will be available across Pakistan at designated TCS outlets from Sunday.
The move has come after the PCB struggles to fill the stadiums during the ongoing PSL’s fifth edition, which has been being staged fully in the country for the first time.
However, the PSL organisers got a reprieve in Multan and Rawalpindi legs of the event where the PSL matches has been staged for the first time and people thronged the stadiums
However, the National Stadium Karachi and Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium remained partially filled during the event raising many doubts about the PCB’s current management’s ability to handle the b rand and the failed marketing strategy may lead to an organizational failure to gain the required results from the event.
Now the PCB has introduced a so-called a new and exciting offer ‘March Madness’ to pull the crowds.
Through the HBL PSL 2020 ‘March Madness’ offer, students with valid educational institute identity cards can avail a discount of 30% from the original ticket price on VIP and Premium category tickets and also on VVIP category tickets that are available in Rawalpindi and Lahore.
The offer also encourages tickets purchasing students to bring their families and friends with them as up to seven tickets can be purchased by one student for every match across the four venues.
The offer is applicable from Sunday, 1 March on all remaining league matches in Rawalpindi, Lahore and Karachi, the offer is not valid for the play-offs and the final.
Rawalpindi will stage five more league matches, Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium will play host to eight more league matches while Karachi’s National Stadium will be staging four more league matches.
