October 3 – FIFA, has issued its first, and surely not last warning to fans prior to the 2026 World Cup urging them to not purchase tickets from ‘unofficial ticketing websites’.
Unauthorised resale sites have already been popping up on the Internet and have started advertising ticket availability for the tournament that will be hosted in the US, Canada, and Mexico bit for which no official ticketing process has begun.
A FIFA spokesperson said: “FIFA encourages any fan wishing to purchase tickets for the FIFA World Cup 2026 to be wary of non-FIFA official ticketing websites that claim to be selling tickets already and only purchase tickets from the official and legitimate source (fifa.com/tickets) from late 2025.
