Our take

Explore the dynamic Airbnb pricing landscape for the FIFA World Cup 2026, showcasing 16,000 active listings across 16 host cities—11 in the US, 3 in Mexico, and 2 in Canada. Our dataset reveals a striking 109% year-over-year increase in average daily rates, now averaging $450. However, a significant gap exists between asking rates (up 145%) and booked rates (up 48%), indicating potential for late-cycle discounting. Notably, hosts in Mexico exhibit the highest price growth at 184%. Discover detailed insights and city-by-city charts

FIFA World Cup 2026 Airbnb pricing data from 16 host cities

Pulled together a dataset of 16,000 active Airbnb listings across all 16 World Cup 2026 host cities (11 US, 3 Mexico, 2 Canada) — the 1,000 closest qualifying listings to each stadium, ranked by proximity. Compared June 11 – July 19, 2026 against the same window in 2025.

A few things stood out:

  • Average daily rate is up 109% YoY ($216 → $450), but the headline number hides the more interesting story.
  • Asking rates are up 145%. Booked rates are only up 48%. That ~56% gap across cities is essentially hosts pricing for a tournament that the market hasn't fully validated yet — a setup for late-cycle discounting if booking pace doesn't catch up.
  • Mexico's hosts are the most aggressive (+184% YoY), Canada next (+117%), then the US (+102%).
  • Peak single-day spike: +387% in Monterrey for Sweden vs. Tunisia.
  • 28× price spread across the dataset — Mexico City's P25 sits at $49/night, Dallas's P75 at $1,403/night.
