Ticket Sales for 2026 World Cup: FIFA Warns Against Unofficial Resale

As fans eagerly await the 2026 FIFA World Cup, FIFA has clarified that official tickets won’t be on sale until late 2025. Despite this, resale platforms like Vivid Seats are already offering tickets for the opening match at the Azteca Stadium, prompting warnings from FIFA.

FIFA advises fans to purchase tickets only through official channels like FIFA.com/tickets and to avoid non-official resale sites. Official sales, including Hospitality Packages, will begin in late 2024.

The Azteca Stadium, undergoing renovations, will host its third World Cup. While ticket prices are not yet confirmed, it is expected that the opening and final match tickets will be among the most expensive.
