I HAVE RECEIVED AN OFFER FROM A TRAVEL AGENCY AND WOULD LIKE TO VERIFY THE AGENCY IS OFFICIAL. HOW CAN I DO THIS ?
Agencies that are not included in the list at the link above are not authorised to sell you official travel packages.
Should you receive offers for official travel packages from an agency that is not an Official Travel Agent, please let us know in an email to the following address: travelprogramme2023@groupecouleur.com.
THERE ARE SEVERAL OFFICIAL TRAVEL AGENTS ON MY TERRITORY. WHICH ONE SHOULD I CONTACT ?
You may contact the Official Travel Agent of your choosing.
THERE ARE NO OFFICIAL TRAVEL AGENTS ASSIGNED TO MY TERRITORY. WHO SHOULD I CONTACT ?

WHICH TICKET CATEGORIES ARE AVAILABLE IN OFFICIAL TRAVEL PACKAGES ?
Official travel packages contain category 1, 2, 3, and 4 tickets.
Tickets will be name-specific. They are therefore non-transferable and will be made available as E-tickets (electronic tickets) a few weeks before the tournament opens.
I AM A PERSON WITH LIMITED MOBILITY OR A DISABILITY AND WOULD LIKE TO BUY AN OFFICIAL TRAVEL PACKAGE. WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO GO ABOUT THIS?
We are currently working to ensure that tickets for those with limited mobility or disabilities will be available starting from September 2021 for purchase in official travel packages. Please stay in touch with your Official Travel Agent for updates.
WHAT ARE THE SALES CONDITIONS FOR OFFICIAL TRAVEL PACKAGES?
In addition to respecting the conditions established for ticket sales by the France 2023 Organising Committee (available here), sales conditions vary between Official Travel Agents (group offers, child rates, payment methods, etc.). Contact the Official Travel Agent of your choice for more information.
