FIFA Opens Final Ticket Window for 2026 World Cup Across All 104 Matches

The late sales window runs through the July 19 final to keep seats moving despite high costs and strict travel rules.

Overview

  • Tickets for every match went live Wednesday through FIFA.com/tickets, which uses virtual queues and an order‑of‑request system with Categories 1–3 and some front‑row seats.
  • FIFA says more than five million tickets are already sold and it will keep releasing new inventory in waves up to the final on July 19.
  • News reports citing internal documents say the U.S. opener at Los AngelesSoFi Stadium was under 60% sold by April 10, with some listings above $2,000 driving fan pushback.
  • FIFA directs fans to buy only through its site and offers an official resale platform for secure transfers, while separate hospitality packages remain available at higher prices.
  • A ticket does not grant entry to the U.S., Mexico, or Canada, so fans must meet visa rules as U.S. immigration enforcement plans a role in event security, and free Fan Fest zones with digital passes offer a lower‑cost way to take part.
