The organizers announced that for the first part of the championship the sale of the tickets exceeded the planned number by one fifth. They are especially satisfied with the outcome in Koper, where the sale was double of the planned.

Tickets still available for Slovenian matches

The overall sale of the tickets, including the second and the third part of the competition, is encouraging. Until now nine tenth of the planned 145 thousand tickets have already been sold. Tickets for Slovenian matches are still available, but the organizers warn that the tickets are running out, and those who wish to buy them should hurry. In the second part of the championship mostly Croatian, Italian, and Serbian fans are expected, while the Finnish embassy has already announced the arrival of a large number of fans.

During the first days of the European Championship Slovenia was visited by 18,000 to 20,000 foreign guests. The largest numbers of visitors came from Macedonia, Croatia, Finland, and Italy, resulting in approximately 50,000 of overnight stays. A large number of visitors stayed only the day.
