The first ticket draw for the FIFA World Cup 2026 is now open, giving fans around the globe a chance to secure seats for the historic tournament in Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

Through the Visa Presale Draw, eligible Visa cardholders can apply for tickets at any point during the ten-day entry window, which runs from Wednesday, 10 September (11:00 ET / 17:00 CET) until Friday, 19 September. The timing of entry does not affect chances of success.

Following a randomized selection, successful applicants will be notified by 29 September, with ticket purchase windows beginning 1 October.

“This marks a momentous milestone as we build up to this historic event,” said FIFA World Cup 2026 COO Heimo Schirgi. “We look forward to millions of fans joining us in North America next June.”
