How to buy Egypt World Cup 2026 tickets?

As of today, the major official World Cup ticket lotteries (including the Visa Presale, Early Ticket Draw, and the post-draw Random Selection Draw) have officially concluded.

With over 500 million requests processed during those phases, primary availability is now at an all-time low.

Here's what you need to know at a glance:

  • The Last-Minute Sales Phase is currently live, having launched on April 1. Unlike previous rounds, this is not a lottery. Tickets are being sold on a strictly first-come, first-served basis with immediate confirmation. This represents the final opportunity to purchase official tickets directly from FIFA.
  • The Official FIFA Resale Marketplace is also open. This platform is now the primary authorized destination for fans to buy and sell verified tickets at regulated prices as the tournament approaches.
  • Alternatively, fans may look to secondary marketplaces like StubHub for last-minute tickets. Remember to check the T&Cs of any secondary sites for tickets you're buying.

What to expect from Egypt at the World Cup 2026?

Despite making their World Cup debut way back in 1934, amazingly, this will be Egypt’s only fourth appearance at the global tournament, and what is even more surprising is that they have yet to register a victory.

It will be a momentous occasion to say you were there to see Egypt break their World Cup hoodoo, and it could happen this summer. Another reason to get those match seats booked as soon as you can.

Hossam Hassan’s Egypt sailed through their World Cup qualifying campaign unbeaten, winning eight games, drawing two, and conceding just two goals. Mo Salah and Trezeguet proved to be the main goal-getters, with the Liverpool legend bagging 9 (which was almost half of Egypt’s 20-goal total) and the Al Ahly man grabbing 5 of his own. Egyptian fans will be praying that both of their trailblazing thirtysomethings will have their shooting boots primed and ready for the summer.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 will take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026, spanning 16 host cities in Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

Scoring twice at Egypt's first-ever World Cup match, their 2–4 defeat against Hungary in 1934, made Abdulrahman Fawzi the only African goalscorer at a FIFA World Cup finals for decades. It took 84 years for another Egyptian, Mohamed Salah, to equal his two-goal tally.

Due to the long time spans between Egypt's World Cup participations, no player has been able to play more than one tournament previously. 22 players currently share the record for most World Cup appearances for Egypt. That will undoubtedly change in the summer.
