According to ESPN, food and beverage prices at Mexico City Stadium will significantly increase during the opening match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The opening ceremony of the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be held at Mexico City Stadium, and only food and beverages provided by FIFA's official commercial partners will be sold inside the venue. The relevant prices are almost double those during Mexican League matches held at the same venue.
According to sources, during Mexico's first FIFA World Cup match against South Africa, a 710 ml beer will cost 310 pesos, equivalent to about $17 at the current exchange rate, almost double the previous prices at Mexico City Stadium.
For non-2026 FIFA World Cup events, whether it's a Mexican national team match or a Mexican League match, a beer at Mexico City Stadium costs 180 pesos. During the FIFA World Cup, when Mexico plays South Africa here, the price of beer will almost double.
As for snacks, a large bag of chips from a FIFA sponsor brand will cost 200 pesos, and a can-sized soda will cost 150 pesos. For mixed drinks, such as Topo Chico soda, a can will cost 200 pesos.
A 600 ml bottle of water will be sold for 80 pesos during this 2026 FIFA World Cup opening match.
These prices will be enforced during the 5 matches hosted at Mexico City Stadium during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Sources indicate that due to different regions and local regulations, food and beverage prices at various venues during the 2026 FIFA World Cup will also vary.
