Foreign Office Travel Advice for FIFA World Cup 2026 when Flying From Heathrow Airport
The UK Foreign Office advises British fans on visas, ticketing rules, and safety amid high demand for accommodation during the FIFA World Cup 2026 across three host countries.
- Next year, the UK Foreign Office issued travel guidance for Brits heading to the USA for the FIFA World Cup, taking place in the US, Canada and Mexico from June 11 to July 19, 2026.
- Officials flagged differing state laws and entry rules as a key risk, noting accommodation and transport will face very high demand and warning about widespread ticket resale scams.
- Only buy tickets via FIFA's official ticketing platform, the Foreign Office warns, as stadium gates require the FIFA World Cup app and ID checks linked to purchaser details may apply.
- Fans risk being turned away at stadiums if tickets are invalid or flagged, and state laws and national regulations on alcohol and drugs vary with the legal drinking age of 21.
- The FCO urges travellers to sign up for email updates and download the official FIFA World Cup 26 app, and to check guidance for Canada and Mexico while planning journeys with extra time on match days.
