CdM: already more than a million tickets have been sold

The 2026 World Cup, which will take place between the United States, Mexico and Canada, is already a commercial success even before kickoff. According to FIFA, more than a million tickets have already been sold for the competition, a record figure at this stage, confirming the enormous anticipation surrounding the first 48-team World Cup in history.

Unsurprisingly, the three host countries top the sales charts, with American, Mexican and Canadian fans among the most active. The event promises to be the most lucrative ever organized by FIFA, both economically and media-wise, with incredible attendance and enthusiasm. As a reminder, France is not yet qualified, despite its first place in Group D of qualifying for the World Cup. The November rally, with oppositions against Ukraine and Azerbaijan, will be decisive.
