Ticket details for the upcoming Como Cup have been confirmed, with Celtic set to face Ajax in the opening round of the mini-tournament.
Hosted on the bank of the beautiful Lake Como in Italy, the four-team competition features Celtic, hosts Como, Al-Ahli and Ajax. The Hoops will meet Ajax on Thursday, July 24 with an 8:30pm kick-off in what promises to be a great European encounter a week before Celtic kick off their season.
The format will see each side play one initial fixture. Como face Al-Ahli the day prior, on Wednesday, July 23. A league table will be drawn up based on those results, with the top two teams advancing to the final on Sunday, July 27. The remaining two sides will contest the third-place play-off on Saturday, July 27.
Tickets are now on sale for season ticket holders, with access available via the Como website using individual client reference numbers. Prices are set at €35 (£30) for adults and €27 (£23) for under-16s.

The Como Cup offers Celtic fans the first opportunity to see their side tested against major European opposition this pre-season, with Brendan Rodgers expected to field a strong side as preparations for the Champions League qualifiers continue.
It could also be the chance to play against Nicolas Kuhn and Alex Valle. Both started last season at Celtic but now play for Como.
