Regulation: FIFA World Cup Ticket Pricing and Sales

The German soccer federation has released the pricing for FIFA World Cup tickets, revealing a range from $180 to $700 for group-stage games. The final game tickets are priced between $4,185 and $8,680. These prices are significantly higher than the previously stated $60 group-stage tickets and $6,730 for the final.

The English Football Association disclosed pricing to the England Supporters Travel Club, indicating that attending all games up to the final would cost over $7,000. FIFA has implemented dynamic pricing for the first time, causing potential price fluctuations.

Tickets are available in four categories, with Category 1 offering the best seats. The German federation lists only three categories, with the lowest price being $180 for Germany's opening game against Curacao. Semi-final tickets start at $920.

Football Supporters Europe (FSE) has criticized the pricing, urging FIFA to pause ticket sales through national associations until a solution that honors the World Cup's tradition and significance is found.

FIFA's third phase of ticket sales commenced with a "Random Selection Draw" allowing fans to apply for specific matches. The draw is open from Dec. 11, 2025, to Jan. 13, 2026. Applications can be submitted anytime within this period without affecting success odds. Fans can apply for up to four tickets per match, with a maximum of 40 tickets throughout the tournament.

To apply, fans need a FIFA ID and can choose their preferred matches and pricing categories. Successful applicants will be notified by email in February, with automatic charges applied.

In 1994, when the U.S. last hosted the World Cup, ticket prices ranged from $25 to $475. For the 2022 Qatar World Cup, prices were between $70 and $1,600. Current prices for the final at MetLife Stadium on Jul 19, 2026, exceed $11,000 on resale platforms.

FIFA has established a resale platform with a 15% fee on the total resale price. Closer to the tournament, any remaining tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis, although the exact release timeline is not specified.
