Oman today_ As the 2026 World Cup approaches, interest in attending the tournament is rising sharply. FIFA announced that in just the first two ticket-sales phases, fans from more than 200 countries have already secured around 2 million tickets — a figure that shows how quickly the available seats were claimed.
The next stage, the “Random Selection Draw,” opens at 21:00 Iran time on December 11 and runs until January 13. During this window, fans can submit their ticket requests through the system.
This phase begins almost simultaneously with the final draw for the 2026 World Cup on December 5. After the full match schedule is released, supporters will—for the first time—be able to choose and apply for single-match tickets based on confirmed groups and the teams they want to follow.
