Watching WC 2026 from stadium just got costlier as FIFA implements another hike

FIFA has hiked 2026 WC ticket prices sharply, with some now at $700. A lower-tier final seat has jumped to $8,680 — nearly $2,000 more than it cost in October.
Catching your favourite team live at the FIFA World Cup 2026 is turning into a costlier dream with every passing month. FIFA has increased ticket prices for the 2026 edition yet again — the third consecutive monthly hike — with several matches now significantly more expensive following the release of the tournament draw and full schedule. The draws are out for the biggest World Cup in football history, with 48 teams participating in it set to be played across the USA, Canada and Mexico. FIFA has sharply pushed up ticket prices for the 2026 World Cup, with some now listed at $700. A lower-tier seat for the final has soared to $8,680 — almost $2,000 higher than what it cost in October.
When FIFA first announced prices in September, tickets on its website ranged from $60 for early group matches to $6,730 for the final. However, with dynamic pricing being introduced for the first time at a World Cup, those figures have continued to climb.
FIFA offers tickets in four categories, with Category 1 being the premium seating.
With the draw completed, every nation now knows its group and the potential route it must navigate. One storyline already generating buzz is the possibility of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo crossing paths in a quarterfinal showdown in Kansas City—provided Argentina and Portugal finish atop their groups.
But even with the matchups laid out, fans aren't assured tickets to the fixtures they request.
The ticket application window opened on Dec. 11 at 11 a.m. ET (1600 GMT) and will run until Jan. 13, 2026.
