"FIFA announced Tuesday that a new ticket inventory for all 104 matches will be available for purchase beginning Wednesday at 8 a.m. PST at FIFA.com/tickets."
"FIFA said more than five million tickets have already been sold for what will be the largest World Cup in history, which would break the tournament attendance record of 3.5 million set in 1994."
"Wednesday's drop, which comes three weeks after what FIFA had said would be the fourth and final phase of ticket sales, follows by a day a report from The Athletic that stated thousands of tickets have not been sold for several high-profile matches."
"Tickets in the top two categories, priced between $1,940 and $2,370, have remained available through subsequent ticket drops, suggesting fans have been deterred by the cost."
FIFA announced a new ticket inventory for the World Cup, available for purchase starting Wednesday. Tickets will be sold across various categories and will remain available until the tournament ends. Over five million tickets have been sold, aiming to break the attendance record. However, reports indicate that many tickets for high-profile matches, including the U.S. opener, remain unsold. The high prices of top-category tickets may be deterring fans from purchasing.
