Wednesday 8 July 2026 - 14:18

Ticket prices for Morocco’s World Cup quarter-final against France have fallen 29% in three days as Thursday’s kickoff approaches and resale prices retreate from earlier highs.

According to Ticket Data, a ticket-tracking service, the get-in price fell to $1,086, down from $1,530, as of 7:04 a.m. Eastern Time (12:04 p.m. GMT+1) on Tuesday, marking a 29% decrease over the past three days.

The get-in price was around $1,872 on Saturday at 6:12 p.m. EDT (11:12 p.m. GMT+1), shortly after Morocco secured a 3-0 victory over Canada in the Round of 16 in regular time. 

Once Morocco’s quarter-final matchup against France was confirmed, the price was $1,536 as of July 4 at 11:40 p.m. EDT (July 5 at 4:40 a.m. GMT+1). 

The price went down to $1,028 on Wednesday at 12:59 a.m. GMT+1 before rising to $1,086 nearly twelve hours later.
Category One tickets, which were priced at $1,270 on FIFA’s official ticketing platform in December 2025, are now selling for $1,366, down from around $2,256 on Saturday evening, with prices continuing to fall.

A similar trend was seen in other 2026 FIFA World Cup matches, with get-in prices seeing noticeable falls in the hours before kick-off.

Ahead of Argentina’s win over Egypt on Tuesday, the get-in price was around $1,599 on July 4, according to Reuters, before falling to $1,378. 

The same happened for Switzerland’s match against Colombia, where prices fell from $972 to $719 over the past few days, the lowest get-in price among the Round of 16 games.

Morocco’s matches in both the group stage and knockout rounds also saw the same trend. 

Against Canada, the get-in price was around $721, down from $838 over the final three days before the match, a 14% decrease. 

Against Brazil in the group stage, prices fell 11%, from $1,965 to $1,749, over the final three days. 

In the second group-stage match against Scotland, the get-in price fell 14% from $1,278 to $1,099, while the original FIFA ticket prices were around $600 and $220, as of December 2025.

Yet, against Haiti, prices saw a bigger decrease, falling 31% from $691 to $477 just three days before the match.

    It was child-like to be biased against Egypt; so, will it be on Thursday to be biased against Morroco. Africans are tired of this kind of childish behaviour. I am seeing a future where all Africans may boycott some world cup tournament. It begins with one Egyptian who has vowed not to watch any other match in this tournament.
