RCB IPL Home Ground, Jersey and Ticket Information

Known for its electric atmosphere, the Chinnaswamy is one of the most iconic and popular venues in Indian cricket.

In case matches cannot be staged in Bengaluru due to weather or other exceptional circumstances, Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow has been used as an alternative venue.

RCB's jersey features a combination of red, black, and gold, with the team's logo showcasing a golden lion wearing a crown-symbolizing authority, pride, and power.

Fans can purchase RCB match tickets through the official RCB website, RCB mobile app, BookMyShow, or Paytm Insider. It is strongly recommended to avoid third-party or resold tickets, as RCB matches are in high demand and often sell out quickly. Ticket prices at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium generally range from ₹3,000 to ₹30,000, depending on the opposition and seat category.
