Belgium have been a force to be reckoned with over the past decade or so, reaching at least the last-8 stage of four major football tournaments, including finishing 3rd at the 2018 World Cup. They\u2019ll be looking to push on again this summer, and you can book match tickets now.<\/p>\n
The likes of Vincent Kompany, Eden Hazard and Dries Mertens may have hung up their boots, but there\u2019s still a glittering array of talent in the current Belgian squad. Jeremy Doku, Kevin De Bruyne, Romelu Lukaku, and others are all set to mesmerise the fans in North America and light up the World Cup.<\/p>\n
Are Belgium going to turn on the style against their group rivals? You could be pitchside to find out. Let GOAL take you through all the latest World Cup 2026 ticket information<\/a>, including how you can secure seats and how much they cost.<\/p>\n When is the FIFA World Cup 2026?<\/p>\n The FIFA World Cup 2026 will take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026, spanning 16 host cities in Canada, Mexico, and the United States.<\/p>\n 104 matches will be played over 34 days across North America. For the first time, the tournament will feature 48 teams and be jointly hosted by three nations.<\/p>\n The host cities for the FIFA World Cup 2026 are as follows:<\/p>\n Canada: Toronto and VancouverMexico: Guadalajara, Mexico City and MonterreyUnited States: Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, New Jersey, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and SeattleWhat is Belgium’s World Cup 2026 group schedule?DateFixture (K.O time local)VenueTicketsMonday, June 15Belgium vs Egypt (12pm)Lumen Field (Seattle)Tickets<\/a>Sunday, June 21Belgium vs Iran (12pm)SoFi Stadium (Inglewood)Tickets<\/a>Friday, June 26Belgium vs New Zealand (8pm)BC Place (Vancouver)Tickets<\/a><\/p>\n Belgian fans were left heartbroken at the World Cup four years ago in Qatar. Despite having an abundance of attacking talent in the squad, they failed to fire in front of goal. In a hard-fought opener against Canada, Michy Batshuayi’s 44th minute strike was all that separated that side.<\/p>\n Astonishingly, that was the only tournament goal Belgium would score. Following the Canada game, they would lose 2-0 to Morocco and draw 0-0 with Croatia, which meant that the Red Devils departed before the knockout phase of the World Cup for the first time since 1998.<\/p>\n After their dramatic exit four years ago, Belgium know they can\u2019t afford to be too complacent this time around. However, on paper, they look to have been drawn in one of the easier groups, with none of their round-robin rivals having ever recorded a World Cup victory.<\/p>\n Up first for Rudi Garcia\u2019s men, it\u2019s Egypt in Seattle. Despite making their World Cup debut way back in 1934, amazingly this will be only the Pharoah\u2019s fourth appearance at the global footballing party.<\/p>\n Belgium will know they\u2019ll have to keep a close eye on Egypt\u2019s trailblazing thirtysomethings, Mo Salah and Trezeguet. The pair netted 14 of their side\u2019s 20 goals during the World Cup qualifying campaign.<\/p>\n Garcia\u2019s side then travel to California and go head-to-head with Iran. Team Melli were knocked out at the group stage during each of their previous six World Cup appearances. They also conceded six goals in one of their group encounters in Qatar 2022.<\/p>\n The Red Devils wrap up their group campaign on Canadian soil (Vancouver) against New Zealand. Last time the All Whites qualified for the World Cup in 2010, they drew all their group games before bowing out.<\/p>\n How to buy Belgium World Cup 2026 tickets<\/p>\n Supporters can purchase official tickets for matches involving Belgium, via the FIFA website, between now and the big kick-off in June.\u00a0<\/p>\n While various sales phases have already taken place, such as the \u2018Visa Presale Draw\u2019 (September), the \u2018Early Ticket Draw\u2019 (October) and the \u2018Random Selection Draw\u2019 (Dec\/Jan), there are still ticket options available.<\/p>\n Last-Minute Sales Phase<\/p>\n Closer to the tournament (from April), fans will be able to purchase any remaining tickets on a first come, first-served basis. FIFA hasn\u2019t said how many tickets will be released or for which games, but you can expect limited availability and quick sellouts.<\/p>\n To purchase tickets, you must visit the official FIFA ticketing portal and register for an account. You can then log in to your FIFA account and check out ticket availability.<\/p>\n Secondary Marketplaces<\/p>\n Beyond initial releases, FIFA also operates its own official Resale and Exchange Marketplace. This is the only FIFA-approved platform for fans looking to resell or purchase already sold-out tickets.<\/p>\n Availability on the resale platform is often limited and sporadic, especially as matches approach, but it remains the safest option for purchasing tickets outside the primary sales phases. For fans in Mexico, a dedicated Exchange Marketplace (Mercado de Intercambio) handles local resale transactions under the same official safeguards.<\/p>\n
