FIFA World Cup North America 2026

Tour hosts announced - Boz, Mooy, Laz & Peacock!

Here is your opportunity to join tour hosts Mark Bosnich, Aaron Mooy, Stan Lazaridis & Adam Peacock at the FIFA World Cup 2026!

Following on from the footballing extravaganza of Qatar 2022 where every match was played in one city, the 2026 tournament will be a more traditional touring spectacular with the event spread across 16 cities in three countries!

From the Canadian gems of Vancouver and Toronto, through the US north-east, south and west coast down to Monterrey, Guadalajara and Mexico City, 2026 will provide the ideal combination of world class football action and incredible sightseeing opportunities. See you there!

Tour Hosts - Mark Bosnich, Aaron Mooy, Stan Lazaridis & Adam Peacock

We are excited to announce that we will be joined on tour by a massive line-up of Socceroos legends Mark Bosnich, Aaron Mooy & Stan Lazaridis. Joining the boys will be Stan Sport’s Adam Peacock who will be hosting the boys and getting the lowdown on the Socceroos, their opponents and all of the World Cup action.

The guys will be travelling with Fanatics for the full duration of the tour, providing their fascinating insight into each match and offering their expert opinions at our exclusive Fanatics functions.

Legendary keeper Mark Bosnich played in England with Aston Villa, Manchester United & Chelsea and represented Australia between 1993 & 2000. Never afraid to speak his mind Boz thrilled us in Brazil and Russia and we're very excited to have him back with us in 2026!

Aaron Mooy represented the Socceroos at the 2018 and 2022 World Cups and played his final match for Australia in the round of 16 play-off against Argentina. With an incredible paying career for the Socceroos along with his A-League, and international club experience in England and Scotland, Aaron will be on hand to provide insights into the current Socceroos set-up and our key opponents.

Star of the West, Stan Lazaridis made 60 appearances for the Socceroos between 1993 & 2006 while playing in England with West Ham United and Birmingham City. Like Boz, Stan was on tour with us in Brazil & Russia and also joined us in Qatar and is always a legendary touring partner!

Adam Peacock spent nearly a decade at the Seven Network and 15 years at Fox Sports. He now presents the Premier League for Stan Sport. Adam joined us in Russia and will provide the perfect foil for some colourful pre-match analyses from the guys!

Match Tickets

As with past tournaments, match tickets need to be applied for directly with FIFA, be sure to register your details with FIFA to receive information as it is announced.

The main ticket ballot will be open for applications from 12 December to 13 January. In the lead up to the tournament additional tickets will be on sale on a first-come-first-served basis and, as in 2022, FIFA will also operate a resale platform for match tickets.

Thanks to the large host stadiums for the tournament tickets for most group-stage matches shouldn’t be a problem so we can look ahead to supporting the Socceroos in the USA, Mexico & Canada with confidence!

Tournament Structure

Along with the expanded number of host cities, the 2026 tournament will be expanded from the current 32 to 48 teams.

Participating countries will be placed in 12 groups of four teams, with the top two and eight best 3rd place getters advancing to a new Round of 32 stage of the knockout phase of the tournament.

Follow Australia Tour

Following on from our tours to Germany, South Africa, Brazil, Russia and Qatar, we are excitedly looking at possible touring options depending on where the Socceroos will be drawn to play.

We will have tours including Australia’s initial pool matches and presumptive round of 32 clash, options to extend and following Australia’s path deeper into the tournament and city-based options for anyone wanting to see as much football as possible - as we learnt in Doha, too much football is never enough!
