A Fan-Centric Pricing Strategy
With unprecedented demand—over 20 million ticket requests already logged in the current random selection draw—FIFA has activated a targeted pricing lever aimed squarely at loyal national team supporters. The Supporter Entry Tier will be exclusively allocated to fans of qualified teams, with ticket distribution administered by the respective Participating Member Associations (PMAs).
Each PMA will independently define eligibility criteria and manage applications, ensuring tickets are ring-fenced for supporters with a genuine connection to their national side. This decentralized governance model aligns accountability with local associations while maintaining global consistency.
Supporter Entry Tier Tickets Price
Supporter Entry Tier tickets set at USD 60 each and available for all 104 matches of FIFA World Cup 2026 across three host countries.
Allocation Breakdown: Affordability at Scale
To institutionalize affordability, FIFA has confirmed that 50% of every PMA ticket allocation will sit within the most accessible price bands:
- Supporter Value Tier: 40%
- Supporter Entry Tier: 10%
The remaining allocation is evenly split between:
- Supporter Standard Tier
- Supporter Premier Tier
This balanced portfolio approach ensures broad market coverage—from cost-conscious fans to premium-seeking spectators—without diluting access for core supporters.
Refund Protection for Supporters
Operationally, FIFA has also streamlined downside risk for fans. Applicants purchasing via PMA allocations whose teams fail to advance to the knockout stages will benefit from a waived administrative fee when refunds are processed for unsuccessful applications—reducing friction and reinforcing trust in the ticketing ecosystem.
Tournament Context and Timeline
The landmark tournament will run from 11 June to 19 July 2026, spanning Canada, Mexico, and the United States, following the recent confirmation of match schedules, venues, and kick-off times. Momentum continues to build as fans worldwide engage with the random selection draw, which remains open until 13 January 2026 at 11:00 ET (17:00 CET). Importantly, submission timing within this window does not influence selection outcomes.
Fans can submit applications and access comprehensive ticketing details via FIFA.com/tickets.
Reinvestment into the Global Game
Operating as a not-for-profit organization, FIFA continues to redeploy tournament revenues into football development. More than 90% of FIFA’s budgeted investments for the 2023–2026 cycle are projected to be reinvested across its 211 Member Associations, spanning men’s, women’s, and youth football—ensuring long-term growth and sustainability of the sport worldwide.
Bottom line: The USD 60 Supporter Entry Tier represents a pragmatic, forward-looking evolution in World Cup ticketing—honoring football’s traditional supporter culture while scaling access for a truly global audience.
The FIFA World Cup 2026 will be staged across three host countries—a first in tournament history—creating a truly continental operating model:
- United States (primary host, majority of matches)
- Mexico
- Canada
