Now that FIFA has announced which teams will play World Cup 2026 matches in North Texas, a big question that remains is whether any of those teams will make North Texas their primary base camp.
What to know about purchasing FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets
Keep the following rules in mind:
If your application is successful, you will not be notified of the details until February, when your credit card will actually be charged.
If you request tickets to multiple matches on a single application, it may be partially accepted. This means you may receive tickets for some matches but not all.
Drawing applications close on Jan. 13, 2026.
If I miss the official FIFA World Cup ticket draw, can I still purchase tickets?
If you prefer to buy tickets closer to the start of the tournament, or if you miss this drawing, FIFA will release all remaining tickets on a first-come, first-served basis through its official website. The dates for these final sales phases are typically announced in the months leading up to the opening match.
