The 2030 World Cup will be hosted mainly by Spain, Morocco and Portugal. In addition, the opening three matches of the tournament will take place in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay to mark 100 years since the first ever World Cup.
This edition of the World Cup is expected to take place between June 8 and July 21, 2030.
The showpiece event has come a long way since the first World Cup back in 1930. Only four teams took part in the inaugural edition in which hosts Uruguay captured the title.
For the 2022 World Cup held in Qatar, more than one million tickets were requested within 24 hours of ticket sales being open. Ticket prices ranged from a mere $11 for residents to $1,600 for the World Cup Final at Lusail Stadium.
At a minimum there will be 48 teams at the 2030 World Cup following the success of the 2026 edition. It could also expand to 64 teams, with FIFA continuing to grow the global game.
The six hosts of the 2030 World Cup - Spain, Morocco, Portugal, Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay - do not have to qualify for this edition of the tournament.
The 2030 World Cup qualifying campaign will commence at the earliest in in 2027 for some confederations (namely AFC, CAF and CONMEBOL) while qualifiers for European countries will likely only begin in late 2027 or early 2028.
Each of the six confederations has its own qualification process and format, based on the number of teams able to qualify from each region.
Europe (UEFA) had 16 slots at the 2026 World Cup, accounting for one-third of the total number of participating teams, with 55 countries taking part in European World Cup qualifiers. CONMEBOL, the governing body of South American football, had six direct slots as well as a place in the play-offs.
The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) had nine representatives at the last World Cup. The Confederation of African Football (CAF) had nine teams advancing to the World Cup finals, out of 53 nations bidding to qualify.
CONCACAF World Cup qualifying will begin in September 2027. There will be at least six nations from North & Central America and the Caribbean at the tournament. Meanwhile, the Oceanian section of World Cup qualifiers will see just one team directly advance to the showpiece.

According to world football’s governing body, 77 of the tournament's 104 matches each received over one million ticket requests for venues that seat between 44,000 and 79,000 people.
The interest was truly global, though some nations were driving demand harder than others. Across the first two sales phases, residents of the three host countries, the United States, Canada and Mexico, drove the most purchases, followed by fans in England, Germany, Brazil, Colombia, Spain, Argentina and France, with fans in 212 countries and territories having already secured tickets.
In the third phase, Colombia, England, Ecuador, Brazil, Argentina, Scotland, Germany, Australia, France and Panama made up the top ten nations outside the hosts by volume of requests, with Colombia's group stage clash with Portugal in Miami attracting the most ticket requests of any single match in the first 24 hours of that phase.
The final sales phase was open from April 2026 on a first-come, first-served basis, which continued through the tournament itself too.

There are four ticket categories available for the 2026 World Cup, each based on the seat position within the stadium. Unlike previous tournaments where categories were defined by proximity to the pitch, the 2026 system is structured around seating height. As a result, lower tiers are more expensive regardless of their angle to the action.
Category 1 Tickets are the premium option, located primarily in the lower tier of the stadium with the closest views of the pitch. These are the most expensive tickets available, with prices ranging from around $450 for group stage matches up to $8,680 for the final at MetLife Stadium.
Category 2 Tickets are positioned outside of Category 1 areas and can be found in both the lower and upper tiers of the stadium. They offer a good balance between view quality and price, typically costing 25–35% less than Category 1.
Category 3 Tickets are located in the upper tier, outside of both Category 1 and Category 2 areas. These represent the most widely available affordable option for fans purchasing through standard ticketing channels, with group stage prices starting from around $140.
Category 4 Tickets are the cheapest seats in the stadium, positioned in the upper tier beyond all other categories.
It's worth noting that the 2026 tournament is the first World Cup to use dynamic pricing, meaning prices within each category can fluctuate based on demand, the teams involved, and the host city. Prices for the same category can vary significantly from match to match.
