The matches of the Vietnamese women's volleyball team will be held at Phuket Municipal Stadium, which has a capacity of about 3,337 people. According to information shared by the Vietnam Volleyball Fans Association, for Thai people, live tickets have 5 different price levels for fans to choose from depending on their financial ability and seating position. Specifically, ticket prices range from 300 baht (about 240,000 VND) for the lowest seat, to 4,000 baht (nearly 3.2 million VND) for a seat closer to the court.

Tickets for the tournament went on sale on 28 May 2025 and quickly sold out within 30 minutes, causing the ticketing website to temporarily crash due to high traffic. Ticket prices range from 300 to 4,000 baht (equivalent to about 240,000 VND to 3.2 million VND), depending on the seat location and the specific match. Details on ticket sales can be found on the FIVB official website or authorized ticketing platforms.

The Vietnamese women's team (ranked 22nd in the world) is in Group G with Poland (ranked 3rd), Germany (ranked 11th) and Kenya (ranked 23rd).

For fans who have not yet purchased tickets, they can look for sources of resale tickets from other fans through community groups on social networks or online platforms. However, it should be noted that the resale of tickets must comply with the regulations and policies of the organizing committee to ensure validity and avoid unnecessary risks, and should not assist in buying and selling through the "black market".

How to travel, rest and eat economically?

According to a fan who has followed many sports tournaments in Southeast Asia, there are a number of ways that fans can apply if they want to cheer for the team in Thailand while still saving money.

According to him, the best way is to fly because traveling by road will take a lot of time, especially when the competition day is near. Round-trip airfare from Ho Chi Minh City to Phuket for the trip on August 22 and return on August 28 ranges from 3.5 million VND/person/2 ways. If you come to Phuket and want to move from the airport to the center, the bus fare is about 200,000 VND/person.

Regarding accommodation, if you want to save money, you should choose the Phuket Town area near the stadium. A bed in a shared room (hostel) for 6 nights will cost about 1.2 million VND/person. If you want a private room at a motel or budget hotel, the cost will range from 4 million to 6 million VND/person. High-end hotels also have many options with different prices, suitable for each person's needs and budget.

The cost of food in Thailand is similar to Vietnam. A normal meal at restaurants costs about 50,000 VND. Therefore, you will need to spend about 300,000 VND per day on food. If you calculate the total for 6 days, you will need about 1.8 million VND. In addition, daily transportation costs in Phuket such as taxis, tuk tuks or motorbike taxis will cost about 300,000 VND per day, which is about 1.8 million VND for 6 days.

In addition to cheering, you can also take advantage of non-competition days to visit famous landmarks such as Phi Phi Island, Koh Yao Yai, etc. The cost of sightseeing will depend on personal choice, but this is definitely a good opportunity to explore the natural beauty of Thailand.

The total cost of the trip to cheer for the Vietnamese women's team in Thailand is estimated to be around 10 million VND, not including the ticket price to watch the match.

This fan also shared that if they go in groups of 3-5 people, they will save significantly on food and transportation costs, creating an experience that is both economical and complete for fans.

With the above information, fans can calculate a reasonable cost for their trip. This is a great opportunity for fans to cheer for the Vietnamese women's team in a major tournament, while enjoying an exciting trip to Phuket.
