Fifa's dynamic pricing for World Cup tickets faces petition from Zohran Mamdani
New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani launched a petition against Fifa's use of dynamic pricing for World Cup 2026 tickets. The pricing model, which adjusts ticket prices based on demand, is accused of putting profit before fans and making tickets unaffordable for many. Mamdani calls for an end to dynamic pricing, a cap on resale prices, and a set-aside of tickets for local residents. No response from Fifa has been reported.
