In the City of Joy, the Lonel Messi cratze has taken hold. The 38-year-old Argentina World Cup winner will visit India for the first time in 15 years on a three-day journey that will take him to four cities: Kolkata, Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Delhi.
Messi will arrive in Kolkata on December 13 at approximately one in the morning as part of the “G.O.A.T Tour of India.” At a function at the Salt Lake stadium, the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner will meet Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, and former India captain Sourav Ganguly at approximately ten in the morning.
He has a flight to Hyderabad at 2:00 PM, thus he will depart the Salt Lake stadium by 1:05 PM. Rodrigo de Paul and Luis Suarez, Messi’s colleagues at Inter Miami, will accompany him. For most of his supporters, Messi’s trip to Kolkata is a once-in-a-lifetime chance.
The cost of tickets for the Messi event in Kolkata ranges from ₹4,366 to ₹11,800. While other people may not care about Messi’s ticket costs, a significant portion of the population finds them to be more expensive than usual. A significant number of tickets are still available online one day before to the event.
