New York and New Jersey subpoena Fifa over ‘manipulated’ World Cup ticketing
Joint investigation run by NY and NJ attorneys general
Subpoena seeks information on Fifa’s ticket practices
Investigation centers on games at MetLife Stadium
The attorneys general of New York and New Jersey have launched an investigation into Fifa’s ticketing practices around the 2026 World Cup, focusing specifically on the matches due to take place at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
The investigation, announced Wednesday by New York’s Letitia James and New Jersey’s Jennifer Davenport, centers on fans who say they were misled about the location of the seats and on claims that Fifa’s own public messaging around tickets has contributed to the inflated prices seen throughout the tournament.
