2026 FIFA World Cup Ticket Prices Drop 24% in Last 30 Days
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup set to begin in less than a month, ticket prices have seen a significant 24% decrease over the past 30 days.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off in just under a month, and the event’s exorbitant ticket prices have been a major headline . Now, however, those prices appear to be in free fall.
According to data tracked by Ticketdata.com , World Cup ticket prices across the secondary market — including sites like StubHub and SeatGeek — have fallen 5% over the last 7 days and 12% over the last two weeks. The steepest decline has come over the past month, with tickets now down 24%, or about $177 cheaper on average, compared to 30 days ago.

That being said, the biggest games — such as Portugal vs. Colombia in Miami, Brazil vs. Morocco in New Jersey, or any of the knockout matches — remain highly-priced. Less expensive games include Cape Verde vs. Saudi Arabia in Houston (the cheapest ticket starts at $153, a steal given the price range), Jordan vs. Algeria in Santa Clara ($163 to see Algeria, one of the best teams in Africa, another steal), and Uzbekistan vs. the Democratic Republic of Congo in Atlanta ($187, not too bad).
