Ticket sales for Argentina against Costa Rica open this Friday 6 November at 16:00, eleven days before the friendly at the Mario Alberto Kempes stadium. Sales will take place exclusively through DeporTick and buyers must be registered. The AFA has set a maximum of four general-admission tickets per user, a restriction designed to spread demand for the national team's return to Córdoba.
The price scale contains four options. General admission costs 80,000 pesos, while children aged three to ten can enter that section for 25,000. Gasparini seats are priced at 125,000 and Ardiles seats at 145,000. The gap between the cheapest child ticket and the highest category is therefore 120,000 pesos, requiring families to decide numbers and sections before entering the system.
The process requires an active DeporTick account, a login and selection of the Argentina-Costa Rica event. A concentrated arrival of buyers at opening time may create a virtual wait or exhaust individual sections, so completing registration and checking personal details beforehand is sensible. The valid reference is the event listed inside the official platform; offers through informal channels are not part of the announced sale.
The match takes place on Tuesday 17 November and closes Argentina's annual schedule. Four days earlier, Lionel Scaloni's side host Uruguay at La Bombonera. That sequence makes Córdoba the second half of a short international window: the staff will need to rotate players, manage workloads and use an opponent with different characteristics after the River Plate derby.
It will also be the second appearance of the era following Lionel Messi's international retirement. Without Messi or Nicolás Otamendi, Argentina have started reorganising leadership and expanding their assessment of younger players. The 28-man squad contains Aaron Anselmino's first senior call and returns for Gonzalo Montiel and Mariano Troilo. That sporting transition adds interest to a night whose value is not limited to a friendly score.
The Kempes provides a capacity and stand layout different from Buenos Aires grounds, and the pricing table reflects that organisation. General admission, Gasparini and Ardiles do not offer the same view or comfort; the child category has only been announced for general admission. Before confirming, buyers should check section, quantity and the age of attendees, because the stated limit specifically concerns four general tickets per account.
The 16:00 opening is therefore the first decisive moment for Córdoba supporters. Prices already allow a budget to be calculated; actual availability in each section remains unknown until sales begin. For Argentina, 17 November means closing 2026 before a home crowd and gathering information for the next cycle. For fans, planning begins well before kick-off with registration, section choice and purchase through the official channel.
