Most tickets cost hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars on the initial market for the 2026 World Cup, but New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani has made them more affordable for some New Yorkers by securing $50 tickets for city residents.
One thousand tickets will be available for $50 to seven of the eight matches at New York New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, usually known as MetLife Stadium. The matches include five group stage games, a round of 32 clash and a round of 16 contest, with the only New York New Jersey game not included being the July 19 World Cup final.
