Ticket Prices for the 2026 World Cup

According to The Sun: Football fans may spend significantly, as it became known how much tickets for the 2026 World Cup will cost.

FIFA announced on Wednesday that ticket prices will start from 45 pounds, but no detailed price breakdown was provided.

The Athletic published a complete price breakdown for the upcoming tournament, which will take place in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.

If Thomas Tuchel's team, 'the three lions', which already has 100% wins in qualification, qualifies for the tournament, fans will need to spend quite a lot.

The cheapest tickets for the group stage will cost $60 (45 pounds) for category 4 tickets. Meanwhile, prices can rise to $620 (420 pounds) for the most expensive category 1 games.

Ticket prices will fluctuate throughout the tournament depending on whether one of the host countries is playing and the stadium.

For example, a category 1 ticket for the first match of the group stage in Los Angeles will cost $2,735 (1,768 pounds), while a match in Toronto will cost $1,745 (1,230 pounds).

Ticket Prices in the Playoffs

Ticket prices increase with each stage of the tournament. In the round of 16, the highest price for a category 1 ticket will be $665 (495 pounds), and in the quarter-finals, it will be $1,690 (1,258 pounds).

In the semi-finals, category 1 tickets will be sold for $2,780 (2,069 pounds), while category 4 tickets will start from $420 (312 pounds).

And in the final at MetLife Stadium, category 1 tickets could cost as much as $6,370 (4,740 pounds), while category 4 tickets will be $2,030 (1,510 pounds).

"This is always a question in our region - flights in Canada and the USA are hot. But it is important to schedule considering these factors," said FIFA vice president Victor Montagliani.

Thus, fans who plan to attend all matches at the stadium may spend a huge amount – up to $12,395 (9,224 pounds) for category 1 tickets.
