According to reports from the BBC, the price of the cheapest tickets for the 2026 FIFA World Cup final is $4,185, which is a significant increase compared to the 2022 final. The allocation of seats has already been sent to national football associations.
The "Football Supporters Europe" association has harshly criticized FIFA for the inflated prices, accusing the organization of "predatory" policies and violating the traditions of the championship. Fans are demanding that ticket sales be halted and prices reviewed, with mandatory consideration of the opinions of all stakeholders.
In FIFA documents from 2018, ticket prices were promised to start at $21, while the path to the final in the cheapest category was estimated at $2,242. Fans believe that these promises have not been fulfilled.
