Gianni Infantino, FIFA President, presented Donald Trump, the U.S. President, with the first ticket to the 2026 FIFA World Cup final. The final match will be held on July 19, 2026, at the MetLife Stadium in the New York-New Jersey area. The symbolic presentation occurred at the White House. Sales for tickets to all 104 matches are set to begin on September 10, 2025. The ticket given to Trump is in Row 1, Seat 1, and is numbered 45/47. This World Cup will be historic, expanding to 48 teams and spanning across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. With venues confirmed in these three countries, the tournament is expected to draw huge crowds, especially with the possible last appearance of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, potentially creating a memorable farewell on the world stage.
