The event was originally supposed to be held in Bangladesh but was moved to the UAE due to political unrest in the South Asian nation caused by a students' protest over quota in jobs.
"Tickets have been priced with accessibility in mind, starting from just 5 AED, while premium seating options are available at 40 AED (Rs 910). For double-header match days, a single ticket grants access to both games," said the ICC in a statement.
Entry will be free for everyone under the age of 18.
"For added convenience, kiosks will also be available at both Dubai International Stadium and Sharjah Cricket Stadium for offline ticket purchases," the statement added.
The World Cup will see 10 nations, including reigning champions Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, Ireland, New Zealand, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, South Africa and West Indies competing to be crowned champions on October 20.
