Hyderabad: The city is set to host football legend Lionel Messi on December 13, with an exclusive meet-and-greet package priced at ₹9.95 lakh drawing significant attention from fans and premium hospitality buyers.
The curated experience offers a rare up-close encounter with Messi, including a professional group photo, an autographed Argentina jersey to be delivered within seven days, and two hospitality tickets that provide premium F&B access, comfort lounges, and car passes.
Participants will also be hosted for high tea at the iconic Taj Falaknuma Palace, where they must report by 4 p.m. on the day of the event.
Organisers say the response has been strong, driven by Messi’s global appeal and Hyderabad’s rising profile as a destination for high-value sporting and entertainment events. The visit is expected to boost the city’s premium experiential market, adding yet another marquee moment to its growing calendar of international attractions.
