Football fans in India will soon get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet global football icon Lionel Messi during his upcoming four-city India tour scheduled from December 13 to 15. As part of the exclusive experience, fans can book a personal meet-and-greet and click a photograph with the Argentine superstar at a premium price of ₹9.95 lakh plus GST.
The high-profile meet-and-photo session will be held at Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad, one of India’s most iconic heritage venues. Organisers have limited the experience to just 100 exclusive slots, making it one of the most premium fan engagements ever offered in the country. Bookings for the experience are currently open through the District app.
Apart from the exclusive fan interaction, Messi’s India visit will include exhibition football matches, youth football clinics, and special appearances, aimed at promoting the sport across the country. The tour is also expected to feature Messi’s international teammates Rodrigo De Paul and Luis Suárez, adding to the excitement among Indian football enthusiasts.
Messi’s visit has already generated massive buzz on social media, with fans eagerly tracking updates related to ticket bookings, venues, and event schedules. The tour is being seen as a landmark moment for Indian football, offering fans rare access to one of the greatest players in the history of the sport.
With limited availability and soaring demand, the exclusive Messi meet-and-greet is expected to sell out quickly, underlining the immense popularity of the football legend in India.
