How to buy tickets for the 2026 FIFA World Cup

Still can’t get a seat inside the stadium? Each of the 11 U.S. host cities will host fan festivals, where people can gather to watch the games on large televisions.

“The majority of people who come to our market don’t have tickets to go to the game, but want to be part of the excitement of the World Cup,” said Kathryn Schloessman, president and CEO of the Los Angeles Sports and Entertainment Commission, which is part of the local World Cup organizing committee.

“There’s going to be some fun fan festivals, which are big viewing parties, where you can watch your favorite teams. Very friendly and very family friendly, very cheap.”

This World Cup, the second to be played in the United States, will begin June 11 in Mexico City and conclude in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on July 19. Eight matches will be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, including Team USA’s opening match on June 12 and its group final 13 days later.
