The 2026 FIFA World Cup is getting close, and this will be the tournament's biggest edition yet. For the first time, the men's World Cup will feature 48 teams and 104 matches across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. With the full official schedule now published, interest is expected to be especially high for knockout-round matches and marquee host-city games, so it helps to understand your ticket options before inventory tightens.
The biggest thing to know about World Cup 2026 tickets is that FIFA has been selling them in phases through its official platform. FIFA's Resale/Exchange Marketplace has already been operating for eligible buyers and sellers, but it is currently closed and is scheduled to reopen on April 2, 2026. That means fans who missed earlier sales windows may still have an official way to buy verified tickets through FIFA, in addition to any remaining primary inventory released in later sales phases. If you're also comparing third-party resale sites like StubHub or Vivid Seats, it's worth checking prices and delivery terms carefully against FIFA's official channels before you buy.
Here's the bottom line: if you're trying to attend, your best bet is to plan around FIFA's April last-minute drop and monitor the official resale marketplace,Â
Vivid Seats

StubHub
 for returns and new availability as fans adjust their plans â especially as teams qualify and travel schedules lock in.
FIFA World Cup 2026 schedule by group
For the World Cup, the field expands to 48 teams split into 12 groups of four. Each team plays three group-stage matches (one vs. every other team in its group), and the top two teams in each group advance â along with the eight best third-place teams â to form a 32-team knockout bracket. Scheduling is built around spreading those group games across the three host countries and multiple stadiums over the latter half of June.

How much are FIFA World Cup tickets?
Resale prices for FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets are already all over the map on StubHub and Vivid Seats, largely because sellers set their own prices and the biggest matches command huge premiums. On StubHub, listings range from about $369 at the low end to $328,053 for ultra-premium inventory (prices vary by match, city, and round).
On Vivid Seats, "get-in" pricing varies widely depending on the specific match you choose. On the broader World Cup listings page, we're seeing some group-stage matches starting as low as $280 (for example, a June 16 group-stage game in Santa Clara). At the high end, the World Cup Final (Match 104) at MetLife Stadium shows tickets starting at $7,609 (with an average listed price of $13,005 on that event page), underscoring how quickly prices jump for the tournament's most in-demand games.
When did 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets go on sale?
Tickets for the 2026 FIFA World Cup first went on sale in September 2025, when FIFA opened the Visa Presale Draw as the initial sales phase (a lottery-style window for eligible Visa cardholders). After that, FIFA continued releasing inventory through additional sales phases (including draw-based windows and subsequent purchase periods), with availability varying by match, venue, and demand.
If you're looking for the next major buying opportunity, FIFA says the Last-Minute Sales phase is scheduled to open in early April 2026, on a first-come, first-served basis, via the official FIFA ticketing platform. In the meantime, shoppers can also monitor FIFA's official resale/exchange marketplace, which allows fans to list and purchase tickets through an approved channel as plans change and inventory reappears.
StubHub
 andÂ
Vivid Seats
 are also good places to find secondhand seats for the sold-out games.

## How much are FIFA World Cup tickets?
Resale prices for FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets are already all over the map on StubHub and Vivid Seats, largely because sellers set their own prices and the biggest matches command huge premiums. On StubHub, listings range from about \$369 at the low end to \$328,053 for ultra-premium inventory (prices vary by match, city, and round).
On Vivid Seats, "get-in" pricing varies widely depending on the specific match you choose. On the broader World Cup listings page, we're seeing some group-stage matches starting as low as \$280 (for example, a June 16 group-stage game in Santa Clara). At the high end, the World Cup Final (Match 104) at MetLife Stadium shows tickets starting at \$7,609 (with an average listed price of \$13,005 on that event page), underscoring how quickly prices jump for the tournament's most in-demand games.
## When did 2026 FIFA World Cup tickets go on sale?
Tickets for the 2026 FIFA World Cup first went on sale in September 2025, when FIFA opened the Visa Presale Draw as the initial sales phase (a lottery-style window for eligible Visa cardholders). After that, FIFA continued releasing inventory through additional sales phases (including draw-based windows and subsequent purchase periods), with availability varying by match, venue, and demand.
If you're looking for the next major buying opportunity, FIFA says the Last-Minute Sales phase is scheduled to open in early April 2026, on a first-come, first-served basis, via the official FIFA ticketing platform. In the meantime, shoppers can also monitor FIFA's official resale/exchange marketplace, which allows fans to list and purchase tickets through an approved channel as plans change and inventory reappears.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is getting close, and this will be the tournament's biggest edition yet. For the first time, the men's World Cup will feature 48 teams and 104 matches across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. With the full official schedule now published, interest is expected to be especially high for knockout-round matches and marquee host-city games, so it helps to understand your ticket options before inventory tightens.
The biggest thing to know about World Cup 2026 tickets is that FIFA has been selling them in phases through its official platform. FIFA's Resale/Exchange Marketplace has already been operating for eligible buyers and sellers, but it is currently closed and is scheduled to reopen on April 2, 2026. That means fans who missed earlier sales windows may still have an official way to buy verified tickets through FIFA, in addition to any remaining primary inventory released in later sales phases. If you're also comparing third-party resale sites like StubHub or Vivid Seats, it's worth checking prices and delivery terms carefully against FIFA's official channels before you buy.
Here's the bottom line: if you're trying to attend, your best bet is to plan around FIFA's April last-minute drop and monitor the official resale marketplace, [Vivid Seats](https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=bi-auto-151181486049e-20&h=8515332ec2748363250fdafe0aebec943438efcb39687a5f4c995cbbfb495d12&platform=browser&postID=69a2095c31adce817ffd7677&postSlug=guides%2Ftickets%2Ffifa-world-cup-2026-tickets-prices-dates&tags=service%3Acapi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.vividseats.com%2Fworld-cup-soccer-tickets--sports-soccer%2Fperformer%2F944), or [StubHub](https://affiliate.insider.com/?amazonTrackingID=bi-auto-151181486049e-20&h=5119c657dc6592161ea04e75d2de30082ccf450382a4f1fcc80e61379c22ee9a&platform=browser&postID=69a2095c31adce817ffd7677&postSlug=guides%2Ftickets%2Ffifa-world-cup-2026-tickets-prices-dates&tags=service%3Acapi&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.stubhub.com%2Fworld-cup-tickets%2Fgrouping%2F45410) for returns and new availability as fans adjust their plans â especially as teams qualify and travel schedules lock in.
## FIFA World Cup 2026 schedule by group
For the World Cup, the field expands to 48 teams split into 12 groups of four. Each team plays three group-stage matches (one vs. every other team in its group), and the top two teams in each group advance â along with the eight best third-place teams â to form a 32-team knockout bracket. Scheduling is built around spreading those group games across the three host countries and multiple stadiums over the latter half of June.
