2026 World Cup Revenue Hits $9.5B
The "Al-Eqtisadiah" newspaper expects the revenues of the 2026 World Cup to reach between $8.5 billion and $9.5 billion, marking the highest level in the tournament's history. This represents an increase of approximately 227% to 265% compared to 2006, which achieved $2.6 billion. The growth is attributed to the expansion of the tournament to 48 teams, the increase in matches to 104, and higher broadcasting rights revenues estimated at $4.3 billion. Additionally, the financial rewards for the participating teams will see a larger share, with each team earning $10 million, and the winner’s prize potentially reaching $51 million.
