Airbnb hosts offer guests the ultimate upgrade: free tickets to FIFA World Cup 2026™

Starting today, select Airbnb homes across all 16 FIFA World Cup 2026™ host cities come with the ultimate perk: free tickets to a match, included with your stay. Averaging $385 USD per night, these homes will be available to book over tournament dates taking place in each city, from group and knockout stages to the World Cup final, with free tickets appearing as a highlight at the top of the home’s listing page.

“Airbnb hosts don't just offer you a place to stay — they provide a more authentic way to experience a destination," said Airbnb Chief Business Officer, Dave Stephenson. "And this World Cup, they're doing something extraordinary: helping fans follow their teams wherever the tournament takes them, with select homes including free tickets in every host city.”

How to score free FIFA World Cup 2026™ tickets as part of an Airbnb stay
To cheer for your team from the stands, search for stays on match dates in a host city on the Airbnb app or Airbnb.com. Listings that include free tickets will feature a soccer ball icon as a highlight at the top of the listing page. Select travel dates, party size, and payment method to confirm the booking — tickets are included for each guest in the party . Once confirmed, the host will share details on how to access tickets.

For the hosts making it happen, the program means something beyond hospitality. "I grew up playing soccer — it's been part of my life since I could walk. Getting to share that love of the game with guests, and actually get them into a World Cup match, is something I never could have imagined when I first listed my home on Airbnb. This is what hosting is all about." - Federico Zimmerman, Dallas, Texas, USA
