FIFA Releases New Ticket Inventory for All 104 Matches on 50-Day Countdown — $60 Supporter Tier Available

| World Cup 2026

FIFA released a fresh batch of tickets for all 104 World Cup 2026 matches on April 22 at 11:00 AM ET as part of its ongoing Last-Minute Sales Phase, on a first-come, first-served basis at FIFA.com/tickets. The drop — marking exactly 50 days until the June 11 opening at Estadio Azteca — included Category 1, 2, and 3 seating and the $60 Supporter Entry Tier for every match. Over 5 million tickets had already been sold across prior sales windows. The additional mid-phase inventory release drew scrutiny from fans and analysts, with some noting it suggests demand has not fully cleared supply in certain markets despite 500 million applications received during the original balloting window. Category 1 Final tickets remain at $8,680 face value, with secondary prices reaching $143,750 on FIFA's own resale platform — 41 times face value. Dallas/AT&T Stadium will host nine World Cup matches, including games featuring Argentina, England, the Netherlands, Croatia, and Japan.
