Applications for tickets for the 2026 World Cup open Sept. 10, FIFA said Tuesday.
The next edition of the tournament, which will be co-hosted by Canada, Mexico and the United States, kicks off at the Azteca Stadium in Mexico City on June 11.
Soccer’s world governing body FIFA said that due to anticipated high demand tickets would be released in phases.
It did not say if it would use dynamic pricing, as was the case for the Club World Cup, which saw ticket prices fluctuate wildly.
