Kabaddi Champions League Announces District by Zomato as Official Ticketing Partner

Kabaddi Champions League has announced District by Zomato as its Official Ticketing Partner, putting every seat for every Kabaddi Champions League Season 1 match a few taps away for fans across Haryana. The partnership brings one of India's fastest-growing "going-out" platforms into KCL's matchday experience, from browsing fixtures to booking a seat in the stands.

What a Ticketing Partnership Means for KCL

A ticketing partner is the bridge between a fan's interest and a fan in the stadium, the moment intent turns into an actual seat booked. With District handling ticketing, Kabaddi Champions League gains a platform built specifically for live experiences, letting fans discover match schedules, book tickets, and plan their outing to the stadium without friction, all from an app millions of urban Indians already use for their entertainment plans.

A Platform Built for India's Live Entertainment Boom

District's own story is one of consolidation and scale. Zomato launched the app in November 2024, bringing together movie tickets, live events, sports, dining reservations, and staycations under a single platform, after acquiring Paytm's entertainment and ticketing business, Insider and TicketNew, in a deal reported at ₹2,048 crore. The move gave District an instant footprint in event and sports ticketing, positioning it as a direct challenger to established players in India's live entertainment space. What started as a spin-off from Zomato's core food business quickly became its own dedicated "going out" platform, built around the idea that booking a night out should be as simple as ordering a meal.

A Natural Fit for a League Fans Want to Experience Live

That focus on live experiences is exactly why District is a strong fit for Kabaddi Champions League. Kabaddi is a sport best felt from the stands, in the noise of a raid, the chants for a favourite raider, the tension of a do-or-die moment, and District's platform is built to turn that kind of demand into an easy, seamless booking. Just as District has worked to become the default app for movies, concerts, and sports fans across Indian cities, Kabaddi Champions League is building match-day demand franchise by franchise across Haryana, giving both organisations a shared interest in making live sport more accessible.

Part of a Growing Commercial Ecosystem

The ticketing partnership adds to a commercial ecosystem that Kabaddi Champions League has built steadily since its launch, joining Skymarx India as Title Sponsor, Vel Sports Management as Strategic Partner, Nirvada as Official Wellness Partner, Ghadi Detergent as Strategic Time-Out Partner, and ZEE and ZEE5 as Official Broadcast Partner. With District now handling how fans get into the stadium, KCL strengthens the fan journey from screen to seat in its very first season.

What This Means Going Forward

For Kabaddi Champions League, a ticketing partner with District's scale and simplicity means fans have a fast, familiar way to book their way into every match, removing friction between interest and attendance. As Kabaddi Champions League builds toward Season 2, having District in place gives the league a strong foundation to keep growing match-day footfall across Haryana and beyond.
