Schedule Considerations

The tournament’s match schedule minimises travel for both teams and fans, while maximising the number of rest days for teams between fixtures. In addition, match kick-off times have now been finalised, with start times across the 16 Host Cities selected to seek to optimise conditions for teams and fans, while offering the greatest possible viewership and engagement in the countries of the participating teams, host countries and globally.

High demand continues as the Early Ticket Draw sees inventory snatched up by fans in more than 200 countries and territories, with nearly two million tickets now sold across the first two phases of ticket sales. The entry period for the third phase of ticket sales – the Random Selection Draw – opened on 11 December and close January 13, 2026.

Timing of a fan’s entry into the Random Selection Draw during the entry period will not impact the fan’s chances of success. All successful and partially successful ticket applicants will receive communications via email and subsequently will be automatically charged for their tickets in February. This marks the third phase of ticket sales for the 2026 tournament, as nearly two million tickets have been made available and purchased for the tournament thus far.
