FIFA has officially announced that ticket applications for the highly anticipated 2026 FIFA World Cup will open on September 10. This tournament will be historic as it is set to be co-hosted by three countries: Canada, Mexico, and the United States. The grand kickoff is scheduled for June 11, 2026, at the iconic Azteca Stadium in Mexico City.
 
As excitement builds worldwide, FIFA expects an overwhelming demand for tickets to the first-ever tri-nation hosted World Cup. To manage this demand efficiently, tickets will be released in multiple phases. However, FIFA has not confirmed whether it will implement dynamic pricing for the 2026 event, a system where ticket prices fluctuate based on demand, which was notably used during the recent Club World Cup and led to considerable price volatility. 
 
 
FIFA President Gianni Infantino expressed his enthusiasm about hosting the tournament across North America, calling it “the biggest and greatest sporting event ever.” He encouraged football fans globally to prepare early to secure their spots, emphasizing that tickets for this World Cup will be among the most sought-after in sports history.
