Best way to get World Cup tickets?
Posted on 12/7/25 at 2:35 pm

I would love to see Argentina play, but I think those tickets are like $1200 per ticket and I’m looking for 4.
Needs to be in KC, Houston, Dallas or ATL.
Would watch Argentina, Spain, France, and England.
Has anyone purchased tickets and is it the standard Ticketmaster/stubhub experience?

Spain vs Cape Verde
Spain vs Saudi Arabia
Probably going to be your best bet. Eyeing the Saudi Arabia match for my group, since it's a Sunday and we may be able to do it without taking any time off work.
We've all tried the officiall process to no avail (so far), but waiting for the next round.

This is going to be the most expensive World Cup ever
You wont find any good matches reasonable priced

Probably going to end up just going to Haiti vs Scotland as that has to be one of the cheapest tickets. Prices for any of the big teams is going to be outrageous.

I would go to FIFA.com and enter the random selection draw starting 12/11. I was selected for the early draw, but I had to buy tickets not knowing who I would be watching. Still, I picked up knockout round tickets for $180 each, so definitely try it.

How does this work? I went to the site but don’t see a way to enter the application. Do you just have to wait until 12/11 to apply? This whole ticket process has been pretty messy

I saw $450 on stub hub and that was for Spain v Cape Verde.
I really don’t know the face value of tickets because the only thing you can purchase from fifa right now are the vip packages.
This is where we are right now with the windows.

Would love to see Haiti vs Scotland since I am essentially 30% Scots-Irish genetically, but I'm not traveling to any cities except Atlanta which is drivable for me.

Where do you find these. That whole sit is a bit of a mess.

I have entered every stage of the official process to no avail so far..
Edit: Stub hub tickets are clearly a scam right now, right?

I entered the pre sale draw, but they have another draw starting 12/11. I think you have to wait until the date before it lets you enter for this one.

Updating this cluster of a process, I've been in the queue for the last 40 minutes or so just to put my name in the phase 3 draw.

In the waiting room now.
Will see how this goes.

If we don't get in here, there is still the ticket exchange that will eventually be open.

Can't imagine I'll have any success in this phase either. But in queue.
Someone will have to remind me; in this process you would then get to select the city you want to see a match? Don't even care who it just needs to be Atlanta.

The wording FIFA has put out is very vague, but my understanding is that you can select specific matches and put in for up to 4 tickets for each one you want, but they'll have your credit card on file and will automatically charge it for the tickets you get in February. Unclear if the actual ticket prices are visible or if those are subject to change. I saw some mention of flex pricing.
All that to say, you better be able to cover the thousands of dollars of tickets you put in for just in case.

That was so strange.
But I was able to request 4 tickets to the Spain Cape Verde game. So, I guess it's now just a waiting game.
And the ticket prices are from $180-$500.

I'm out.
Will just wait for the Ticket Exchange portal to open and hopefully get a couple tickets for an Atlanta group stage match for a decent price.
Does the Marketplace open on December 15? Or if not, when?
