World Cup volunteers receive uniforms, new tickets released
We're less than a month out from the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and North Texans volunteering in the event have received their uniforms. FOX 4's Peyton Yager has more on that and the new hospitality tickets released today.
ARLINGTON, Texas - FIFA World Cup volunteers began picking up their uniforms this week, and additional tickets for the nine matches in North Texas have been released less than a month away from the start of the tournament.
FIFA World Cup volunteers
Volunteers who were chosen by FIFA are able to pick up their uniforms for the event in Fair Park starting this week.
The uniform consists of a shirt, jacket, hat and shoes, all branded with the logo for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
What they're saying:
Norma Garcia-Lopez was selected as a volunteer for the World Cup, and picked up her uniform on Monday.
She tells FOX 4's Peyton Yager the application process took more than two hours to complete.
"To get chosen is amazing. It's something I can't even put into words," Garcia-Lopez said.

The lifelong soccer fan found out she will be helping with catering at AT&T Stadium for several matches.
"Soccer is the world's game. To be in that atmosphere… it will be something unreal for me."
New World Cup tickets released
FIFA has released a new set of premium tickets for the matches in North Texas.
The hospitality tickets are available for multiple levels of the stadium, and will provide fans with a hospitality space outside the venue upon arrival.
"We wanted to make fans aware of different options in case they could not secure tickets to any of the games," Gianni Infantino, the President of FIFA, said in a recent interview.
Infantino said that all nine of the matches set to be played in North Texas are nearly sold out.
However, if you're looking to buy one of these new tickets, you'll have to pony up some cash. The cheapest tickets FOX 4 could find on FIFA's website was a $650 suite ticket for the June 14 match between the Netherlands and Japan.
