CSK Tickets 2026: Price, Booking Guide, Match Schedule and Where to Buy Chennai Super Kings IPL Tickets

CSK tickets 2026 are in massive demand as Chennai Super Kings look to bounce back in IPL 2026 after a forgettable last-place finish in 2025. With MS Dhoni back in Yellow and Sanju Samson joining the CSK IPL 2026 squad via a blockbuster trade from Rajasthan Royals, every CSK match — home or away — is generating huge ticket interest.

CSK play 14 league-stage matches this season — seven at home at MA Chidambaram Stadium (Chepauk) and seven away. The full schedule, including Phase 2 fixtures, has now been released by the BCCI. Here is everything you need to know about CSK IPL tickets, including price, where to book, and which matches are selling out.

(updated on April 9, 2026 after RCB vs CSK match)

CSK Full Match Schedule — IPL 2026

CSK have seven home games at Chepauk this season — against Punjab Kings (April 3), Delhi Capitals (April 11), Kolkata Knight Riders (April 14), Mumbai Indians (May 2), Lucknow Super Giants (May 10), Sunrisers Hyderabad (May 18), and Gujarat Titans (May 21). Three of CSK’s last four matches are at home, giving them a strong finish to the league stage.

The IPL 2026 schedule was released in two phases by BCCI with CSK facing RCB only once in a notable deviation from usual set of fixtures every year.

RR vs CSK Result — Guwahati (March 30)

CSK’s season opener against Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati ended in a heavy defeat. Rajasthan Royals won by 8 wickets with 47 balls remaining after bowling CSK out for just 127. Nandre Burger and Jofra Archer dismantled CSK’s top order, while Ravindra Jadeja — turning out for RR after 17 years — took two wickets in his very first over. Fifteen-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi then smashed a 15-ball fifty to seal the chase in 12.1 overs. MS Dhoni missed the opener due to a calf injury. Jamie Overton top-scored for CSK with 43 off 36 balls.

CSK will be looking to respond immediately when they play their first home match at Chepauk on April 3.

Where to Buy CSK Tickets 2026

For away matches, tickets are sold through the home team’s platform:

CSK Tickets Price 2026 — Chepauk Stadium

Here is the expected CSK tickets price 2026 structure at MA Chidambaram Stadium, based on previous seasons and available reports:

Important — 40% GST applies. The Indian Government reclassified IPL under the ‘Luxury Entertainment’ tax bracket in late 2025, raising GST from 28% to 40% on all tickets priced above ₹500. A base-price ticket of ₹1,500 will cost approximately ₹2,100 at checkout. Always check the final amount before confirming your CSK tickets booking.

Note that high-demand fixtures like CSK vs MI and CSK vs RCB may carry dynamic pricing premiums. District also charges a booking fee of approximately 10–12% (inclusive of GST) on top of the ticket price.

CSK vs PBKS Tickets — Chennai (April 3)

CSK’s first home game of IPL 2026 brought Punjab Kings to Chepauk and it was a disappointment as Punjab Kings toppled them easily.

CSK vs RCB Tickets — Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru (April 5)

The CSK vs RCB fixture was widely followed but it ended up in huge disappointment for CSK as they went on to concede 250 runs with a sensational late onslaught from Tim David and Rajat Patidar. In return, Sarfaraz Khan was the only player who showed some fight for CSK.

CSK vs DC Tickets — Chennai (April 11)

CSK’s second home game at Chepauk hosts Delhi Capitals on April 11 at 7:30 PM IST. By this point CSK will have played three matches and the team’s early form will shape ticket demand. DC bring their own storylines with a rebuilt squad, but at Chepauk the draw is always the home side. CSK vs DC tickets 2026 are available through the District app and the CSK official website. If CSK’s opener against PBKS sells out quickly, expect similar urgency for this fixture. This could also be the match that sees MS Dhoni return from injury, adding even more demand to an already high-interest fixture.

CSK vs KKR Tickets — Chennai (April 14)

The third home game in a packed April for CSK brings Kolkata Knight Riders to Chepauk on April 14 at 7:30 PM IST. KKR, the 2024 IPL champions, always draw a strong travelling support and this fixture typically generates high demand. CSK vs KKR tickets are available on the District app by Zomato. With three home games in 12 days (PBKS on April 3, DC on April 11, KKR on April 14), fans looking to attend multiple matches should book early across all three.

CSK vs MI Tickets — The Blockbuster at Chepauk (May 2) and Wankhede (April 23)

CSK vs MI is the most anticipated fixture in any IPL season, and 2026 is no different. The two teams meet twice — first at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on April 23 (MI home game, tickets on BookMyShow), and then at Chepauk on May 2 (CSK home game, tickets on District by Zomato and CSK website).

MI vs CSK tickets and CSK vs MI tickets are among the fastest-rising search queries this season, with search interest surging 150% over the past week alone. The Chepauk fixture on May 2 will almost certainly be the first CSK home match to sell out. For the away leg at Wankhede, CSK fans should check BookMyShow as soon as MI releases the ticket sale date.

SRH vs CSK Tickets — Hyderabad (April 18) and Chennai (May 18)

CSK play Sunrisers Hyderabad twice this season — away in Hyderabad on April 18 and at home at Chepauk on May 18. SRH vs CSK tickets for the Hyderabad fixture are available on District by Zomato. For the home leg at Chepauk, tickets will be available through the standard CSK booking channels. Search interest for SRH vs CSK tickets has risen by 50% in the past week.

GT vs CSK Tickets — Ahmedabad (April 26) and Chennai (May 21)

Gujarat Titans host CSK at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on April 26 (3:30 PM IST), with tickets available on BookMyShow. CSK’s final league-stage match is at home against Gujarat Titans on May 21, and CSK vs GT tickets will be on District by Zomato. If the playoff race is alive, this could be Chepauk’s biggest night of the season.

How to Avoid Fake CSK Tickets

With CSK tickets 2026 in massive demand, fraudulent listings have become a concern. Stick to these rules:

• Book only through District by Zomato, the CSK official website, or the Chepauk box office
• Do not purchase from unverified social media sellers or third-party resale sites
• Verify that your M-ticket has a valid QR code in the District app before match day
• Carry a valid photo ID (Aadhaar, PAN, or passport) — it will be checked at entry

With CSK looking to bounce back after a last-place finish in IPL 2025, and the Dhoni-Samson combination generating unmatched fan interest, demand for CSK match tickets 2026 at Chepauk will be relentless. Book early.
