Ticket Prices and Seating
MetLife Stadium is divided into four FIFA ticket categories for the 2026 World Cup, each reflecting a different viewing experience:
Category 1: The premium option. Covers the entire 100-level lower bowl and the sideline and corner sections of the 200 level. Fans here are closest to the pitch. These are the most sought-after seats in the stadium and the highest prices.
Category 2: Strong value for most fans. Includes lower corner sections and central upper-tier areas. Preferred by many experienced stadium visitors over equivalent lower-bowl corner seats.
Category 3: Upper tier, behind the goals. These seats offer a wide, panoramic view of the whole pitch and are well-suited to fans who want to take in the full picture of the game. The trade-off is distance from the action.
Category 4: Highest and furthest seats, typically in the upper corner and end-zone areas. The most affordable option.
MetLife is one of the largest venues in the tournament, and its upper deck sits higher than most US stadiums. For this fixture, Category 1 or Category 2 lower-bowl seating is generally recommended for a comfortable viewing experience. Entry-level resale tickets generally begin from around £600–£800, while premium hospitality and halfway-line seats can exceed £2,000 depending on availability and seating location.
As the tournament approaches, resale prices are expected to fluctuate. Buyers should also factor in booking fees, delivery charges, and currency conversion costs when comparing listings.
Travel Tips
Getting There
MetLife Stadium sits in East Rutherford, New Jersey, roughly 10 miles from Midtown Manhattan. There is no direct subway link, but the stadium is well served by match-day rail and bus services.
The best public transport option is the NJ Transit train from Penn Station in New York City to Meadowlands Station, which sits directly outside the stadium. Services run frequently on matchdays, and this is by far the easiest way to avoid traffic.
For rideshare users, designated pickup and drop-off areas are signposted around the stadium. Allow extra time for surge pricing and post-match queues.
Flying In
The two closest airports are Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), around 10–15 minutes from the stadium by car, and John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), approximately 45–60 minutes away depending on traffic. Newark is the most convenient option for most World Cup travellers heading to MetLife.
Where to Stay
If proximity to the stadium is your priority, hotels in the Meadowlands area and nearby Secaucus offer the most direct access.
Most fans choose to base themselves in New York City, Midtown Manhattan, the Hudson Yards area, or Jersey City, all of which give easy access to Penn Station and the matchday NJ Transit service to the stadium.
Things to Do Around the Match
Times Square, the High Line, and the Hudson Yards are all within easy reach for fans staying in Midtown. For a more local feel, Hoboken and Jersey City both have a lot of bars and restaurants and are a short journey from the stadium.
The FIFA Fan Festival will also have large screens, food stalls, and live entertainment at a dedicated venue throughout the tournament.
Matchday Tips
MetLife Stadium does not have a direct subway link, so planning your transport is important. The NJ Transit train from Penn Station is the most reliable option, buy tickets in advance as matchday demand will be high. With a 4:00 PM local kickoff on 25 June, arriving early is strongly advised as crowds are expected to be large.
