MILAN WORLD CUP BID 2025

Post by Torchiador »

PROPOSED DATE: November 1-2

PROPOSED LOCATION: Milan City


The Kick Off House has the pleasure to announce his bid for the 2025 Kick Off 2 World Cup.
It seems yesterday but nine whole years have passed already since the last Italian World cup! Time has come then.

LOCATION - VENUE

https://www.hotelconcordemilano.com/en/


After an initial deal with hotel manager, we agreed with the 270sqm venue we enjoyed 9 and 13 years ago. The venue its been widely appreciated in 2012 and 2016. I do think we will be not disappointed this year.

COSTS
We estimate the fee should be in line with lasts world cup and probably cheaper but we are still dealing.
About KOA hotel accommodation costs, we will have the best possible fare of the Hotel (and generally speaking, in Milan) as we agree the dates 1-2 November right with the hotel manager asking them to propose their best date/price.
It will be possible to book even triple rooms to split further the costs.
As usual will be arranged the Saturday and Sunday buffet lunches in hotel, saving time and money.

FLIGHTS

Milan has got 3 airports. Low cost flights to Milano Malpensa, Bergamo Orio al Serio and the closest, Milano Linate that is inside the city. Transfers from Malpensa and Orio al Serio are available by train and bus. Also taxi service is available. Generally speaking the airports are very well connected to down town. hotel is located 5 minutes walk from a metro station.

TOURNAMENT FORMAT AND SETTINGS

They will be defined according with the the KOA World Cup Rule Protocol.

CONCLUSION


Although the KOA knows very well Milan city, I do think there is always a good reason to visit it again!
