Why are World Cup tickets so expensive?
FIFA has been repeatedly criticized for the sport the price of World Cup tickets In various pre-competitive auctions, one group is suing the court for “excessive pricing”.
In April, FIFA had four tickets on its auction block at a price of $2m each; President Gianni Infantino laughed about it, but no he defended and eye watering treesHe insists the world governing body should take advantage of US laws that allow tickets to be resold for thousands of dollars more than their face value.
Experts link the prices to several factors, the main one being the US share of 78 matches out of 104 matches.
“One of the main reasons the World Cup is being held in the US is because of the financial opportunities it can provide,” Simon Chadwick, a professor of Afro-Eurasian sports at the Emlyon Business School in Shanghai, told Al Jazeera.
FIFA has entered what Chadwick calls a “mature” market, where “consumers are willing to spend money on sports, which is part of the high value and business segments.”
The sports expert believes that FIFA has set a “price tag for tickets”, which has been used in the US for several years.
Dynamic ticketing, also known as premium pricing, is a sales method in which ticket prices are not fixed; instead, they fluctuate in real time based on demand, availability, and timing.
