Talanta Sports City Issues Urgent Warning to Kenyans Who Bought Bayern Munich vs Ajax Tickets

Talanta Sports City has cautioned Kenyans who have purchased tickets for the highly anticipated Bayern Munich versus Ajax match against sharing their ticket QR codes on social media or with other people.

The warning was issued on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, ahead of the January 5, 2027, international football friendly scheduled to inaugurate the Raila Odinga International Stadium in Nairobi.

According to a report by Nairobi Leo, the organisers reminded ticket holders that their QR codes are essential for gaining entry into the stadium and should remain private.

The organisers warned that anyone who shares screenshots of their tickets online risks allowing another person to use the QR code before they arrive at the venue.

“Keep your ticket safe! Your ticket’s QR code is your key to the stadium,” the organisers stated in their public notice.

They further advised fans to avoid posting ticket screenshots on social media platforms and WhatsApp groups, adding that tickets should only be presented for scanning at authorised stadium entry points.

The warning followed the first phase of ticket sales, during which 15,000 tickets were reportedly sold. Talanta Sports City confirmed that additional tickets would be released in subsequent phases, urging supporters who missed the first sale to monitor its official communication channels.

The organisers also cautioned fans against purchasing tickets through unauthorised sellers or individuals claiming to offer private hospitality packages.

According to the stadium’s official frequently asked questions page, fans who wish to transfer tickets to another person should use the designated Send to a guest option under their ticket accounts. The process generates a new entry code for the recipient.

The January 5, 2027 fixture will take place at the 60,000-capacity Raila Odinga International Stadium, located at Jamhuri Grounds along Ngong Road in Nairobi.

The match will form part of the stadium’s official inauguration celebrations. However, the organiser’s match information page indicates that the official kick-off time is yet to be confirmed.

The organisers have encouraged ticket holders to protect their purchase details and rely on verified Talanta Sports City platforms for further announcements regarding ticketing and matchday arrangements.
