Spain and Argentina will go head to head this Sunday, July 19, 2026, at 7pm GMT at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, within the New York metropolitan area.

To access the stadium in East Rutherford, supporters of both national teams and football enthusiasts will need to open their wallets wide.

Indeed, the average ticket price for this final stands at a staggering €9,717. The cheapest ticket, outside of special discounts, is priced at €3,496.

It gets crazier—on ticket resale sites, some seats are being listed for... €1,748,000. An absolute nightmare for fans forced to pay a fortune to witness this historic showdown.

With the Spain-Argentina final shaping up to be the most expensive in sports history, expectations are sky-high for a spectacular contest between both squads’ stars—especially the much-anticipated duel between Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal.
