For Saturday and Sunday, regular early bird tickets are set at Sh300, advance tickets at Sh500, and gate tickets at Sh750 per day.
According to KRU, a regular season pass will cost Sh1,000, while VIP fans will pay Sh2,000 for early bird access, Sh2,500 in advance, Sh3,000 at the gate, or Sh5,000 for a season pass.
"On Friday, tickets are available for just Sh300, and this will give fans free seating, which means they can sit anywhere in the stadium. On Saturday and Sunday, regular early bird tickets are going for Sh300, advance tickets at Sh500, at the gate they will cost Sh750 per day, while a season ticket is Sh1,000," the KRU website reads.
"The VIP category, the early bird costs Sh2,000, advance costs Sh2,500, at the gate the ticket will cost fans Sh3,000 per day, and for those who prefer purchasing the season ticket, it's going for Sh5,000."
The iconic tournament, first held in 1996, returns to Nyayo for the first time since 2021.
The refurbished stadium, currently hosting the 2024 CHAN tournament, will welcome international men’s, women’s, and age-grade teams competing for the Robin Cahill Trophy.
Last year, the Safari 7s broke tradition by moving outside Nairobi for the first time, with Machakos County hosting the event. Kenya’s Shujaa and Spain’s Costa Blanca Ladies claimed the men’s and women’s titles respectively.
Nyayo now reclaims its status as the tournament’s home ground, staging the event for the fourth time after the 2011, 2012, and 2021 editions.
Defending champions Shujaa will be eyeing a record-extending run, having sealed a third consecutive crown in Machakos with a 12–0 victory over Shogun Rugby, adding to earlier wins in 2021 and 2023.
