The highly anticipated 2026 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner, and the excitement is building up.

As Canada, Mexico, and the United States prepare to welcome the world, FIFA has launched the first phase of ticket sales for the tournament.

This phase, known as the Visa Presale Draw, offers fans worldwide a chance to participate in this historic event.

Visa cardholders have an exclusive opportunity to apply for tickets during the ten-day entry period, which started on September 10, 2025, and runs until September 19, 2025.

To participate, fans must log in with their FIFA ID and complete the application form on (link unavailable).

The random selection process will determine who gets access to purchase tickets.

Ticket prices for the 2026 FIFA World Cup will start at $60 for group-stage matches, while the most exclusive seats for the final will reach up to $6,730.

Single match tickets, venue-specific tickets, and team-specific tickets will be available for purchase.

However, due to high demand, ticket availability is not guaranteed, even for successful applicants.

The ticket sales process will be divided into several phases:

– Phase 1: Visa Presale Draw – Exclusive opportunity for Visa cardholders to apply for tickets.

– Phase 2: Early Ticket Draw – Registration window expected to take place from October 27-31, with purchase time slots from mid-November to early December.

– Phase 3: Random Selection Draw – Registration begins shortly after the Final Draw for the FIFA World Cup 26, allowing fans to submit applications for specific matches.

Fans can also explore additional ticket options, including:

– Hospitality Packages: Available at (link unavailable), these packages include match tickets and premium services.

– Official Resale Platform: FIFA will launch a secure resale platform later this year, allowing eligible ticket holders to safely exchange or resell tickets.

– FIFA Ticket Exchange Platform: Mexican residents will have access to a dedicated platform for buying and selling tickets.

FIFA encourages fans to purchase tickets only through the official (link unavailable) website to avoid unauthorized resale channels.

With the tournament set to feature 48 teams and 104 matches across 16 host cities, this promises to be an unforgettable experience for football fans worldwide.
