DC IPL 2026 Tickets start from Rs 1,400 and go up to Rs 2,800 for regular stands, with premium sections priced above Rs 5,000 for select areas at Arun Jaitley Stadium. 

All Delhi Capitals home match tickets are being sold only on DistrictByZomato, and the team has 7 home games scheduled in Delhi this season. But here is the one detail that can ruin the whole plan for fans: booking online is not enough. 

Delhi Capitals are using a physical ticket collection system, which means you must collect your ticket before match day to enter the stadium.
