Summary
$1,453 is the average price paid for USMNT group-stage tickets on SeatGeek, the highest demand profile in the U.S. and Canada ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
$1,765 is the average for the Americans' June 12 opener against Paraguay at SoFi Stadium, with SeatGeek saying home-soil scarcity is pricing U.S. matches like a World Series or NBA Finals.
Brazil ranks second at a $1,316 average, and more than 80% of buyers for its group-stage matches live in the U.S., pointing to domestic demand rather than inbound travel.
Portugal sits third at $1,237, but its June 27 match against Colombia in Miami averages $2,419—the priciest among U.S., Brazil and Portugal—as fans chase what could be Cristiano Ronaldo's final World Cup.
