For French fans, Les Bleus’ qualification on Thursday night opens the door to the race for 2026 World Cup tickets.

Yesterday, France’s national team clinched their spot at the 2026 World Cup. With qualification in the bag, one burning question is on everyone’s mind: how can you get your hands on tickets to watch France in Canada, the United States, or Mexico? This Friday, the French Football Federation has already unveiled the details.

For this supersized edition, FIFA is in full control of all tickets. No FFF ticket counters, no third-party platforms—everything goes through FIFA. And for French supporters, a three-step process has been set up. Before dreaming of a France–Germany match in Los Angeles or a trip to Monterrey, you need to start with registration.

The dedicated registration form is already open. It’s a simple but essential step—this first phase is your key to accessing the ticket portal reserved for French fans starting in December. Next comes the ticket application. From mid-December 2025, each registered fan will receive a unique code via email. This golden ticket will allow you to request seats for both group stage and knockout round matches.

February 2026 is decision time. A random draw will determine which applications are successful. The lucky winners will then receive an official email from FIFA confirming their ticket allocation and can officially start planning their World Cup adventure.
