UEFA on Monday said that tickets for the Champions League final in Budapest have been “frozen at the same prices from last year’s game” as part of a “more fan-friendly program than the World Cup.” UEFA detailed limits on who can buy tickets through its resale platform, which “must be priced at face value with no fee charged to the seller -- unlike FIFA’s resale platform for World Cup tickets” in the U.S. Critics have likened the 2026 World Cup tickets market to “official scalping with no limit on resale prices offered and FIFA taking 15% fees from buyers and sellers” (AP, 3/16).
