With Norway failing to qualify for a major tournament for 25+ years, many thought they’d never get the chance to see Haaland and his cohorts at the biggest sporting extravaganza on the planet. However, following a sparkling qualifying campaign, numerous Norwegian fans are now preparing for summer trips to North America.
Is Norway going to blast its way through the group phase? You could be there to find out. Let GOAL take you through all the latest World Cup 2026 ticket information, including how you can secure seats and how much they cost.
When is the FIFA World Cup 2026?
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.
104 matches will be played over 34 days across North America. For the first time, the tournament will feature 48 teams and be jointly hosted by three nations.
The host cities for the FIFA World Cup 2026 are as follows:
- Canada: Toronto and Vancouver
- Mexico: Guadalajara, Mexico City, and Monterrey
- United States: Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, New Jersey, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle
What is Norway's World Cup 2026 group schedule?
| Date | Fixture (K.O time local) | Venue | Tickets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tuesday, June 16 | Norway vs IC Path 2 winner (6pm) | Gillette Stadium (Foxborough) | Tickets |
| Monday, June 22 | Norway vs Senegal (8pm) | MetLife Stadium (East Rutherford) | Tickets |
| Friday, June 26 | Norway vs France (3pm) | Gillette Stadium (Foxborough) | Tickets |
It proved to be a highly memorable group campaign for Norway when they last qualified for the World Cup, 28 years ago. After opening with score draws against Morocco and Scotland at France 98, they recorded a remarkable 2-1 comeback win against Brazil, to book their spot in the knockouts.
Norway’s preparation for their World Cup 2026 opener has been put on hold until their opponents are known. They are set to kick off at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough against the IC Path 2 winner, which will be either Bolivia, Suriname or Iraq.
The Scandinavians then head down the East Coast to East Rutherford for a clash with Senegal, six days later. The Lions of Teranga have recorded high-profile wins against a number of European sides at previous World Cups, such as France, Sweden and Poland, so Norway can't afford to take them too lightly.
Stale Solbakken and his troops head back to Foxborough for their final group encounter and the toughest of the lot against France. As well as capturing the main prize twice before, Les Bleus came within a whisker of further global glory in both 2006 and 2022, when they finished runners-up.
How to buy Norway World Cup 2026 tickets
Supporters can purchase official tickets for matches involving Norway, via the FIFA website, between now and the big kick-off in June.
While various sales phases have already taken place, such as the ‘Visa Presale Draw’ (September), the ‘Early Ticket Draw’ (October) and the ‘Random Selection Draw’ (Dec/Jan), there are still ticket options available.
Last-Minute Sales Phase
Closer to the tournament (from April), fans will be able to purchase any remaining tickets on a first come, first-served basis. FIFA hasn’t said how many tickets will be released or for which games, but you can expect limited availability and quick sellouts.
To purchase tickets, you must visit the official FIFA ticketing portal and register for an account. You can then log in to your FIFA account and check out ticket availability.
Secondary Marketplaces
Beyond initial releases, FIFA also operates its own official Resale and Exchange Marketplace. This is the only FIFA-approved platform for fans looking to resell or purchase already sold-out tickets.
Availability on the resale platform is often limited and sporadic, especially as matches approach, but it remains the safest option for purchasing tickets outside the primary sales phases. For fans in Mexico, a dedicated Exchange Marketplace (Mercado de Intercambio) handles local resale transactions under the same official safeguards.
For those who miss out on FIFA’s official windows or need tickets for specific dates or cities, secondary ticketing sites like StubHub will also list World Cup tickets. These platforms offer more flexibility, but generally at significantly higher prices due to demand-driven resale markets.

What to expect from Norway at the World Cup
Norway are hoping for better fortunes in North America this summer, as they failed to fire at USA 94. Despite winning their opener in Washington against Mexico, 32 years ago, they failed to score in their following two games in East Rutherford (Giants Stadium), losing 1-0 to Italy and drawing 0-0 with Republic of Ireland.
They return to East Rutherford again (MetLife Stadium) for one of their World Cup 2026 group encounters. It’s the stadium which will also be hosting the World Cup Final on July 19 too.
The Norwegians will have taken much confidence from their qualifying campaign last year and head into this summer’s tournament with a spring in their step. They won all eight of their qualifiers, doing the double over Italy along the way, beating them 3-0 in Oslo and 4-1 at the San Siro.
Unsurprisingly, Erling Haaland was the star of the show, finishing way in front on the UEFA World Cup qualifying scoring chart, with 16 goals. No other European player even reached double figures. Haaland has now netted 55 times for his country in 48 internationals.
