2026 FIFA World Cup tickets
The FIFA World Cup is the most-watched sporting event in the world, as it’s a global celebration that unites fans across continents, languages, and cultures. Every four years, the tournament becomes more than just soccer; it’s a worldwide moment of connection, pride and passion. In 2026, that energy will be on full display as the World Cup returns to North America, with matches hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup will also make history as the first men’s World Cup to feature 48 teams instead of 32. With 50 percent more teams, the tournament will bring more countries, players, and fanbases into the spotlight. With this expansion comes a record 104 total matches, compared to 64 in previous editions, stretching the tournament to nearly six weeks. The goal behind this change is simple: more global representation, more opportunities for underdog stories and more unforgettable moments for fans everywhere.
For supporters, that means more to enjoy with more nations to cheer for and more games to watch. Whether you’re following the world’s top-ranked teams or discovering a first-time qualifier making history, the 2026 FIFA World Cup promises nonstop excitement. With three host countries and dozens of world-class venues, it’s set to be the biggest World Cup ever and a once-in-a-lifetime experience for fans around the world.
How much are 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets?
Ticket prices for the 2026 FIFA World Cup on SeatGeek will vary widely based on a number of factors. Since this will be the first World Cup hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico—and the largest ever with 48 teams—ticket demand is expected to be extremely high.
Here are the key factors that will influence pricing on SeatGeek:
Match significance: Group-stage games tend to be more affordable, while knockout rounds, semifinals, and the final are typically the most expensive.
Teams playing: Games involving the World Cup hosts will be more expensive, like the U.S. Men’s National Team playing a match in the United States. Other matches featuring global powerhouses like Brazil, Argentina, France and England usually command premium prices as well.
Venue and location: Larger or more in-demand host cities often see higher prices than smaller markets. Examples would be New York/New Jersey, Los Angeles and Mexico City.
Seat category: FIFA uses a tiered system (Category 1, 2, 3, and 4). Category 1 seats closest to the field or pitch generally cost the most, while upper-level and corner seats are more budget-friendly.
Timing and availability: Prices can fluctuate as the event approaches. Early buyers may pay closer to face value for guaranteed seats, while late buyers might see prices drop or rise depending on supply and demand.
Resale market trends: Since SeatGeek is a live marketplace, ticket prices adjust in real time based on fan interest, remaining inventory and performance of specific teams.
On SeatGeek, fans can set price alerts and compare listings to help secure the best possible deal for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Fans can also use Deal Score, a tool that helps find the best prices for seats on a 1-10 rating system (with 10 being the best possible deal).

How can I get cheap FIFA World Cup tickets?
Scoring affordable 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets is all about timing, flexibility and smart strategy. Because demand varies by team, city and stage of the tournament, prices can fluctuate dramatically over time. While early rounds often feature more accessible pricing, more marquee matches like knockout rounds or games involving major nations tend to command higher prices.
On SeatGeek, fans can track World Cup ticket price trends in real time and spot deals as they emerge. Ticket prices sometimes dip closer to match day, especially if sellers lower prices to offload inventory. Tracking matches you’re interested in (by clicking the heart icon) and setting price alerts gives you the best chance to snag tickets when they drop.
Flexibility is key: consider group-stage matches, weekday games or games in smaller host cities, which often come with lower prices. Use SeatGeek’s Deal Score to identify the best-value tickets across categories and venues, and check back often as the tournament approaches. With smart timing and a bit of patience, fans can experience World Cup action without paying top-tier prices.
What are the different ticket categories for the 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets?
FIFA organizes tickets into several seat categories based on proximity to the field and viewing angle. For the 2026 FIFA World Cup, there will be four main categories available to the general public, along with special accessibility and hospitality options.
Here’s how the categories break down:
Category 1: The most premium seating, located along the sidelines and closest to the halfway line. These seats offer the best views of the field and are typically the most expensive.
Category 2: Excellent seats behind Category 1 areas, often extending toward the corners of the stadium. They provide strong views of the action at a slightly lower price point.
Category 3: More affordable seats located behind the goals or in upper-tier sections. These are popular among fans looking for a balance between view and value.
Category 4: The most budget-friendly option, generally reserved for behind-the-goal or upper-level areas. Availability may vary by stadium.
On SeatGeek, every 2026 FIFA World Cup ticket clearly lists its category, so you can easily compare pricing and seating options across matches, cities, and venues. Use SeatGeek’s interactive seating charts to explore where each category sits within the stadium and find the best spot for your budget and experience.

Who are the top players to watch at the 2026 FIFA World Cup?
Several star players are expected to make a major impact at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and adding a World Cup championship would be massive for their legacies. Here are the biggest names to keep an eye on throughout the tournament.
Lionel Messi (Argentina): Widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers of all time, Messi led Argentina to a FIFA World Cup victory in 2022. The 2026 tournament could be his final World Cup, making his matches especially significant for fans. Messi is also just three goals shy of tying German Miroslav Klose’s record of 16 men’s World Cup goals. Messi currently plays for the MLS squad Inter Miami.
Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal): Ronaldo remains one of the most prolific goal scorers in international football and continues to perform at a high level despite his veteran status. He brings leadership and experience to Portugal, making him a key figure in their 2026 campaign. The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star now plays with Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia.
Kylian Mbappé (France): Mbappé is one of the most exciting forwards in the world. He has already starred in major tournaments, including the 2018 World Cup win for France, and will be central to France’s attack in 2026. He has 12 goals in 14 career World Cup matches, just one behind Messi for the most among active men’s players. Mbappe is also one of the top players on Real Madrid in La Liga.
Lamine Yamal (Spain): A rising star, Yamal has drawn attention for his technical skill, agility, and creativity on the field. The prodigy will be just 18 years old at the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and he will be representing the next generation of elite talent. Yamal is also a dynamic winger on his club team, Barcelona.
Mohamed Salah (Egypt): Salah is Egypt’s most dangerous attacking player, known for his speed, dribbling, and goal-scoring ability. He consistently influences matches at both club (Liverpool in the English Premier League) and international level, making him a player to watch in 2026.
Christian Pulisic (USA): Often called “Captain America,” Pulisic is the face of U.S. men’s soccer and will lead the American squad on home soil in 2026. Known for his pace, creativity, and finishing ability, Pulisic has starred in Europe for several years and currently plays for AC Milan in Italy’s Serie A. His performance could be pivotal as the United States looks to make a deep run.
Which teams have already qualified for the 2026 FIFA World Cup?

Is it better to buy FIFA World Cup tickets in advance?
Purchasing 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets in advance is a smart move to secure your spot at any World Cup game and avoid potential sell-outs. With multiple stadiums and tiered seating categories, buying early helps you find the best vantage point and value for your preferred experience.
Here are some key benefits of planning ahead and buying 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets in advance:
Guaranteed seats: Lock in the best available options, from preferred sections to optimal views.
Price stability: Early buyers can avoid last-minute mark-ups, especially in the later rounds if there ends up being a marquee matchup with two soccer powerhouses squaring off or if a host nation makes it further than expected.
Greater selection: Get full access to detailed seating charts for each stadium, so you can compare visibility and proximity to the field before choosing your seat.
Stress-free planning: Skip the scramble and enjoy peace of mind—no rushing at the last minute or dealing with sold-out alerts.
Better group coordination: Secure more nearby seats when attending with friends or family, ensuring everyone sits together.
Time for logistics: With your tickets secured, you can plan travel, lodging, parking and transportation across host cities without the added rush.
Will FIFA World Cup tickets purchased on SeatGeek be seated together?
Yes, SeatGeek guarantees that FIFA World Cup tickets bought together will be seated together unless the listing specifies otherwise. This allows groups of friends or family to sit together, ensuring a shared experience without any seating worries.
What this means for your FIFA World Cup tickets:
Seats will be adjacent if you select two, four, or more tickets in a single listing.
Occasionally, seat numbers might look non‑sequential (e.g., even vs. odd), but SeatGeek ensures they are physically next to each other.
Always check the seller's notes on the listing. If there’s any exception, it will be stated there (like “split across the aisle”).
Tips before you buy FIFA World Cup tickets:
Confirm ticket quantity in one purchase.
Review the seating chart and notes on the listing page.
Use filters to find listings with the exact number of seats you need.
What is the best ticket resale site for FIFA World Cup tickets?
Many fans consider SeatGeek the best resale site for FIFA World Cup tickets thanks to its trusted marketplace, transparent pricing, and Deal Score system that highlights the best values.
You can track price drops, sort by best deals, and buy with confidence thanks to SeatGeek’s buyer guarantee!
Is it safe to buy 2026 FIFA World Cup resale tickets?
Buying resale tickets on SeatGeek is designed to be a secure and reliable experience. If any issues come up, SeatGeek’s support team will work with you to make things right by providing a refund or replacement tickets of equal or better value.
Any resale listing on SeatGeek is subject to seller verification and must comply with SeatGeek’s Terms; listings that fail to meet requirements or that pose risk are removed.
Here are some tips to make your resale purchase safer and smoother:
Always buy directly through SeatGeek — don’t transact outside the platform. This ensures you remain covered by the Buyer Guarantee.
After purchasing, monitor your “Tickets” tab or order confirmation to see when transfers are available; accept them only via the email/account you used for checkout so everything links properly.
If the tickets don’t arrive within the stated delivery window or if you run into an issue, contact SeatGeek support immediately. SeatGeek will step in to make things right.
Why buy FIFA World Cup tickets on SeatGeek?
SeatGeek isn’t just another ticket marketplace—it’s a trusted way to find and purchase 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets confidently and without the hassle of lotteries or restricted sales windows.
While FIFA’s official ticket platform uses strict rules like account-based purchase caps and randomized draws, SeatGeek offers more flexibility and transparency once resale inventory becomes available. Fans who missed out during FIFA’s initial sales phases can often find a wide range of verified listings across different cities, stadiums, and seating categories.
Here’s why fans choose SeatGeek for 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets:
Buy instantly, no lottery required: Unlike FIFA’s draw-based system, SeatGeek operates on a first-come, first-served basis. If a ticket is listed and the price works, it’s yours immediately. That way, there isn’t any waiting for lottery results.
Access more seats and categories: Resale inventory includes Category 1–4 seats and other premium options that may be unavailable through FIFA’s portal. You can compare by stadium, section or price point all in one place.
Real seat views and interactive maps: Every listing includes detailed seating charts and in-stadium views, so you know exactly what you’re getting before checkout.
Transparent pricing: SeatGeek shows all fees upfront, ensuring no surprise costs at checkout.
Dynamic, expanding inventory: As fans’ travel plans change or FIFA’s resale phases conclude, new listings appear on SeatGeek so you can check back frequently for better prices or newly released seats.
Will there be 2026 FIFA World Cup fan events?
Fans can expect fan zones and public watch parties across many host cities during the 2026 FIFA World Cup. These events will feature live match broadcasts, music, local food and interactive experiences celebrating the global tournament.
The size and duration of fan events will vary by city. Additional host committee fan zones and “watch party” locations are still being announced, but here are a few that have been confirmed so far:
NY/NJ Fan Festival (Liberty State Park): Running the full duration of the tournament (June 11 – July 19, 2026), this fan festival will feature real-time match broadcasts, live entertainment, and interactive experiences for fans of all ages.
Houston Fan Festival (East Downtown District, next to Shell Energy Stadium): A major fan hub throughout the World Cup with live screenings, food and drink vendors and interactive games.
Miami Fan Festival (Bayfront Park): An official FIFA Fan Festival™ that will serve as a free, family-friendly fan destination for matches hosted in Miami, with live screenings and cultural events.
Seattle Fan Zones (Washington State): Nine fan zones have been announced across the state, including a main hub at the Seattle Center. Cities like Bellingham will host additional watch parties, live entertainment, and local community activations during Seattle match days.
What happens if a 2026 FIFA World Cup match is postponed or rescheduled?
Don’t sweat it, SeatGeek has you covered! If a 2026 FIFA World Cup match is postponed or rescheduled, your tickets will likely be valid for the new date. SeatGeek will reach out to you with the new event date once it is set.
If the venue requires new tickets for the new date, SeatGeek or SeatGeek's sellers will provide you with new tickets of equivalent or higher value. Usually, new tickets are required if the event location has changed from the original venue to a new one. Depending on the new venue, new tickets may not be in the same location as your original tickets, but SeatGeek will work to get you as close to the same experience (view, value, level, etc.) as possible.
If you're unable to attend a rescheduled event, you can resell your tickets on the SeatGeek Marketplace. Due to the complexities of live events, and because your tickets will be valid for entry, SeatGeek and our sellers are unable to offer refunds for postponed, TBD or rescheduled events unless state laws directly stipulate otherwise.
What happens if a 2026 FIFA World Cup match is cancelled?
If a 2026 FIFA World Cup match is officially cancelled, SeatGeek, in its sole discretion, will provide you with a full refund of the purchase price (refunded to the original payment method you used at checkout) or, subject to applicable state laws, issue you a credit for use on a future purchase. SeatGeek will reach out to you as soon as we receive confirmation from official sources.
How will my 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets be delivered?
Most 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets purchased on SeatGeek will be delivered as mobile transfers—just like other major sporting events. You’ll receive your tickets digitally through a third-party platform (such as the venue or team’s official ticketing app), and you’ll scan them directly from your phone for entry. These tickets are not available as printable PDFs, and SeatGeek doesn’t control the delivery format or timing—the event organizer does. No matter the format, your order is always protected by SeatGeek’s Buyer Guarantee, ensuring your tickets are delivered in time for valid entry.
For the World Cup specifically, fans should expect a mobile-only delivery process across nearly all matches. Because of the event’s global profile and strict security protocols, barcodes are usually released close to match day. They’re often released within 24 to 48 hours before kickoff, and sometimes even the day before or day of the game. This timeline is normal and intentional for high-demand events like the World Cup, helping reduce fraud and unauthorized resale. SeatGeek’s process and guarantee remain the same, so you’ll receive everything you need in time to attend.
As with any event on SeatGeek, it’s smart to check your order confirmation or the “Tickets” tab for delivery details. When you receive the transfer email, accept it using the same email address you used for checkout so the tickets appear properly in your account. If your transfer hasn’t arrived by the expected window, simply contact SeatGeek support through your order in the app.
