Numerous World Cup sales windows may have come and gone, with match tickets selling like hotcakes, but there are still plenty of options available for you to secure seats and make those dreams become reality.
Let GOAL be your guide on all the latest World Cup 2026 ticket information, including how you can buy them, how much they cost and more.
When’s the next World Cup 2026 sales window?
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.
This doesn't mean you can't get tickets though, because there are still some avenues open and available with tickets.
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 authorised 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.
