1. Resale: Tickets purchased during the first two lottery sales phases that have been listed for resale can be accessed on FIFA’s own official marketplace.

🔗 The FIFA Resale/Exchange Marketplace

FIFA warns that: “Tickets sold on unofficial resale websites, social media, or through third-party vendors may be fake. …” From its FIFA’s Ticket Terms of Sale for General Public: “Only the third parties listed on the [FIFA] ticketing website are authorized to sell tickets on behalf of FIFA. … Tickets purchased via unauthorized sales channels may not be valid or they may be sold to you in breach of applicable use restrictions. These tickets may be declared invalid or cancelled by FIFA Ticketing …”


2. U.S. Soccer Insiders: Entry into a lottery is being offered for premium (paying) Insiders the week of March 9-14.

Like entries for the FIFA Participating Member Association lottery earlier this winter, entries in the U.S. Soccer lottery are determined by your Insider tier, the higher (and more expensive) the tier the more entries you have, as well as the length of tenure in the program.

The ticket application form will be open until Saturday with two or four tickets available in Category 1, 2, or 3 for select matches. If selected, Selected Applicants winners will receive a purchase link to complete their order at the end of March. Tickets prices into a 10 percent surcharge.
