How to Purchase Round of 16 Tickets

Most official ticket lotteries for the World Cup, including the Visa Presale and Early Ticket Draw, have ended. Over 500 million requests were received during those phases, so primary tickets are scarce now.

Right now, the Last-Minute Sales Phase is ongoing. It started April 1 and operates on a first-come, first-served basis with instant confirmation. This is likely your last chance to buy official tickets directly from FIFA.

The FIFA Official Resale Marketplace is also open for fans wanting verified tickets at regulated prices as the event nears. Some might turn to secondary sites like StubHub, but always check the terms before buying from unofficial sources.

Keep an eye on all options if you want to catch the action live.
