"The Bay Area will host six games at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara (or San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, as FIFA calls it): five in the group phase and one for the round of 32. Because FIFA is using dynamic pricing, ticket prices have gone up since the first ticket draw. Currently, prices for games in the group phase go from $140 to $2,735. Prices for the round of 32, round of 16, quarterfinals and semifinals get more expensive exponentially."
"Thanks to the recent draw that defined the 12 groups of four national teams (with some pending) and the full schedule for the tournament and unlike the two prior lottery rounds fans can now select individual matches. Starting Dec. 18, fans can access the FIFA ticket platform to see the prices for each of the 104 matches in the tournament, the biggest in history after the expansion to 48 teams from 32 in recent competitions."
FIFA opened a new lottery window enabling fans to buy tickets for specific 2026 World Cup matches and view prices for all 104 games starting Dec. 18. The tournament expands to 48 teams, making it the largest World Cup in history. Levi's Stadium in the Bay Area will host six matches: five group-stage games and one round-of-32 match. FIFA implemented dynamic pricing, which has increased ticket costs since the initial draw. Group-stage prices vary by category and location, later-round and final tickets reach thousands of dollars, and organized fan groups face the same prices as casual buyers.
