Fans who missed out in earlier ballots now have a final opportunity to buy World Cup tickets, with FIFA’s last-minute sales phase opening later today (April 1).
This window operates on a first-come, first-served basis, with tickets confirmed immediately at purchase rather than through a draw.
Sales begin at 11am ET (4pm UK time) and will remain open through to the start of the tournament, though availability is expected to fluctuate. Tickets will be sold exclusively through the official FIFA ticketing portal, and supporters are advised to have their FIFA Ticketing account set up in advance, with payment details saved, as remaining inventory for high-demand matches is expected to sell out quickly.
Alongside the main sale, FIFA is also reopening its official resale platform in April. This allows fans to buy verified tickets from other supporters who can no longer attend, and it remains the only approved secondary marketplace for World Cup tickets.
