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

That's good to see. It seemed curious to me why those would be excluded.

 

Hey teammates don’t loose hope, I got an email today for a time slot. For those of you that have gone through the proccess and purchased during this phase, any hints ? The window seems like it’s 48 hours, should I try to get in as soon as possible ?

 

Is there a an unofficial link where we can see current prices to each category of each round ? Average would be helpful anyway with the understanding that it’s dynamic based on venue. Or does anyone have any insight based on recent time slot allocation ?

 

I am losing hope... no emails for me in the Visa pre-sale draw, the Domestic Draw and this International Draw. In the mean time, it looks like some people got pulled in at least two if not all three draws... FIFA encouraging the touts! I mean, if you get selected, you get your tickets. Why would you be selected again? Then at that point, you're buying to max out the 40 tickets per household for resale at a profit...
Well, maybe FIFA is keeping my application handy for the draw after the group and games selection so I can get tickets for Argentina - Italy for $60 LOL

 

Can someone please point me to the google sheet with the prices ?

 

This is the sheet with the prices.

 

I have gotten selected twice for these lotteries and my advice would be to get into the queue as soon as it opens. On the Visa Presale, I had a late window and things were practically gone that I wanted in an hour or two. Seemed like a lot of the Cat 3 on Wednesday was gone a few hours in. If you're fine with Cat 1 and Cat 2, you can probably wait a bit.

 

No, you should wait until the very end. That's the best time!

 

I can tell you this is the first time i have ever been selected, and have been applying since 2012 both euro and world cup. Might be a blessing or a curse to be selected early lol

 

Thank you, and great to hear from you again. Can’t believe we are back at this again after 2 years from the euros. When you have a slot is there a queue again ? Or you get right in but it’s a roulette where you keep loosing items that are in your cart like it happened during euros ?

 

Thanks a lot

 

It seems that the U.S. economy is about to crash into a recession. Smart people know this and are saving money rather than spending it. Those who are buying overpriced World Cup tickets will have tickets but may not have a job 8 months from now.

 

Damn only smart people know this? Lol Can you elaborate on your prediction? How can we start preparing?

 

It seems like they really overpriced the first USA match. This window was domestic exclusive, right? And despite that after almost 3 days they still have CAT 1/2/3 for that match. It's not even the opening match of the world cup, it's just the first USA match, so I think they got really carried away.

 

Yeah. You would think they would have lowered it by now. Im assuming it will sit again this sale.

 

Thanks, same to you! There is a queue and it was over 90-100 mins to get in last time on two different devices. I figure it will be similar here. I have had no issue carting anything so far, but I wasn't picking the most desired matches at the time either. I can't remember the UEFA timer for sure (might have been 15 minutes), but it is around 15 mins for this. I wasn't paying attention and playing around to what was available and started cashing out when it got down to 7 mins or so to not get kicked.

 

Are you able to cart it? I saw some people complain that they couldn't cart those cat 3 tickets. Maybe some glitch?

 

Are you living in a hole? Corporate layoffs, continuing rising inflation, tariff impact still coming, AI and real estate bubbles. Not sure what to tell you other than you might want to read news about something other than just soccer.

 

The only city that sold all its games, including the midweek games, is Atlanta. Impressive.
The USA game (Match 59) is still available in Category 2, and the USA opening is available in all cats. The less desirable cities are Kansas, Houston, Seattle and Dallas

 

I read on the FIFA website about the different categories, such as:
• Wheelchair User & Easy Access Amenity
• Easy Access Standard

A friend is bringing his dad, who may need easy-access seating because he uses crutches. But how does it work? Can the son sit next to his dad by buying two Easy Access Standard tickets? And what kind of proof do they ask for?

 

I believe there is someone here that was looking at the same sort of categories. One thing I believe is also different this time round, is that Accessibility tickets DO NOT come with a free companion as they did in QATAR, or are at Cat 4 prices? Can someone confirm these for me to make sure this is correct

 

For those who got selected for Nov 17th Lottery, can you see the same inside the application? i got an email, but my account doesn't reflect the lottery date and time.

 

No and I don’t think they are doing that anymore. If you got the email you are good.

 

Can someone confirm that the only tickets available for RTB redemption for Final are Category 3? Am I missing something? It doesn't seem to make sense...

 

Yes that is right and only 300 of them.
