Fans Lash Out at FIFA, Calling Price Jump For World Cup 2026 Tickets A “Betrayal”; Check Crazy Ticket Prizes Here

FIFA World Cup 2026 Ticket Prices: Football fans have accused FIFA of a “monumental betrayal” after the governing body released the prices of World Cup 2026 tickets. Fan organization Football Supporters Europe (FSE) described the current prices as “extortionate.”

“This is a monumental betrayal of the tradition of the World Cup, ignoring the contribution of supporters to the spectacle it is,” it said in a statement.

The draw for the tournament which will be co-hosted by United States, Canada and Mexico was completed last week with 48 teams participating in it. FIFA has increased ticket prices for the 2026 edition again. 

FIFA has sharply increased ticket prices for the 2026 World Cup. Some tickets now cost as much as $700. A lower-tier seat for the final is now $8,680 — nearly $2,000 more than it was in October.

The tickets ranged from $60 for early group matches to $6,730 for the final when FIFA had first announced prices in September. 

The tickets are offered in four categories with Category 1 being the premium seating. The ticket application window opened on December 11, 2025 and will run until January 13, 2026.

Here are the prices for FIFA World Cup 2026 Group Stage matches as Category 1 / Category 2 / Category 3:
