Ticket prices for the FIFA World Cup 2026 final have dropped sharply days before the July 19 showpiece, with TicketData.com reporting a 28% fall over the past week and a 19% decline in three days. The cheapest resale ticket now costs $7,149, down from $12,200 on June 22. Prices for quarterfinals and semifinals have also fallen by roughly 46-50%. Experts attribute the decline to FIFA's dynamic pricing, fluctuating demand and brokers offloading inventory after overestimating interest. Despite FIFA reporting record attendance and viewership, 1,366 final tickets remained available at MetLife Stadium, priced between $7,380 and $32,970, after FIFA released an additional 1,500 seats to the market.
