Going to North America '26: tickets, accommodations, etc. (non-politics)

To answer my question of whether anyone outside of the host nations had received the invitation, I have now got one for Thursday.

 

As of right now, some VST and many TST, very few singles.

 

Do they have accessibility tickets, and do they come with a complimentary companion this year?

Know there was some people who asked of that beforehand

 

Got an email for Thursday as well

 

I need wheelchair seats, hopefully there will be some. SF, and maybe LA R32

 

When you say very few singles does that also include Group games in Cat 1 & 2?

 

Yes, I saw lots of wheelchair tickets and "wheelchair companion" tickets. I don't think these are complimentary tickets.

Just group games for the most part.

 

Glad to see a lot of public outcry about the prices for this WC, wouldn't be surprised if FIFA reduces the prices for the next sales phase (still much higher than Qatar) and try to come out as the good guys that want to please the fans

 

If they sell all the VISA period allocation they are not going to reduce prices. The only way that will happen is after the draw when people decide Benin v Kosovo is not such a draw after all.

As for FIFA wanting to be seen as the good guys! This boat sailed many years ago.

 

Finally landed a lottery spot, but I imagine the cupboard is bare. Can anyone tell me if there are any matches remaining in Vancouver?

 

The fundamental problem here is that the World Cup is being hosted in a wealthy country with a huge population with disposable income. That’s what sets the price and there’s no realistic way FIFA can beat that. The extra money either goes to FIFA or it goes to scalpers.

What makes everyone think they’d be the lucky ones getting the cheap tickets? If FIFA sold all the tickets for $50, they’d be gone in minutes and then you’d have to buy on StubHub later for $500 for premium matches. If you want to go to some matches for $50, just don’t buy anything now and wait until FIFA drops the price for low demand matches.

 

Haven't they already raised prices for some of these matches during this Visa Presale?

 

Hearing lots getting that email just now for Thursday window.

 

Trying to find enough of us to clean up the remaining crumbs...

 

Earlier this morning only VST6 and VST7.

 

Still no winning lottery for me but looks like the only thing I want (Argentina TST 3) is no longer available

Looks like I'll have to watch from home if I can't get them from FIFA as Argentina always sells 3x face value

 

I'm pretty certain this bit of self publicity will be removed post haste.

 

I got the winning email, on the entry 250k

 

Is slot 4 out? Can someone confirm?

 

Saw these notes from the AMA call regarding RTB conversions:

 

People that were in slot 2 or 3, do we know if there were restocks during the sales phase? I'm mainly targetting individual matches

 

There’s still another TST sales phase coming in November.

When you say “Argentina sells at 3x face value”, do you mean the Argentina federation sells its tickets to supporters at 3x face value? I thought the supporters tickets still adhere to FIFA’s price categories.

 

My only question is if you just join at any point before the start time does the queue randomize at the start time (ie 11 EST) or is it advantageous to get in the queue right as its created?

 

yes, something was restocked but not a lot
vst and some tst appeared later and there were quite a few available
