FIFA World Cup 2026™ Tickets Set for New Release as Last-Minute Sales Phase Continues

FIFA World Cup 2026 ticket drop offers seats for all 104 matches

With the countdown to the tournament underway, FIFA World Cup 2026 organizers have announced a new ticket release as part of the ongoing Last-Minute Sales Phase, giving fans another opportunity to secure seats for matches across North America.

Beginning April 22 at 11:00 a.m. ET, tickets for all 104 matches will be made available to the public via FIFA’s official ticketing platform at FIFA.com/tickets on a first-come, first-served basis.

Tickets Available Across All Matches

The latest ticket drop will include multiple seating categories, including Categories 1 to 3 and select premium front-row options, depending on availability for each match.

Organizers confirmed that additional tickets will continue to be released periodically throughout the tournament, which runs until the final on July 19, 2026.

More than five million tickets have already been sold, highlighting strong global demand for what is set to be the largest World Cup in history, featuring 48 teams competing over 39 days.

High Demand Expected

Due to anticipated demand, FIFA is advising fans to prepare for digital queues when accessing the ticketing platform. Once admitted, users can view available matches, select seats via an interactive seat map, and complete purchases online.

Fans are also reminded that FIFA.com/tickets is the only official source for World Cup tickets, with an authorized resale and exchange platform available for eligible ticket holders.

Hospitality Options Available

For those seeking a premium matchday experience, FIFA has confirmed that hospitality packages — which include match tickets — remain available through its official provider, On Location, at FIFA.com/hospitality.

These packages offer enhanced services and seating options for fans looking for a more elevated experience during the tournament.

Travel Considerations for Fans

FIFA also emphasized that a match ticket does not guarantee entry into host countries, including Canada, the United States, and Mexico. Fans are encouraged to review visa and entry requirements through official government channels and apply early where necessary.

Ticket holders travelling to the United States may also be eligible for the FIFA Priority Appointment Scheduling System (FIFA PASS) to assist with visa processing.

A Record-Breaking Tournament Ahead

The 2026 edition of the World Cup is expected to break attendance records, potentially surpassing the 3.5 million cumulative attendance mark set in 1994.

As anticipation builds, the latest ticket release offers fans another chance to be part of one of the most significant sporting events ever staged across the continent.
