According to FIFA, the acrylic also functions as a USB keepsake containing an authenticity film, and is presented in a premium hinged shoulder box with spot UV detailing.

Because the pitch won't be removed until after the tournament concludes, the item is currently only available as a pre-order, with shipping expected following the 2026 World Cup final.

The tournament's showpiece match is scheduled to take place on July 19, 2026, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, meaning buyers will have to wait until after the final before receiving their piece of football history.

As for which two teams will meet in the final, that has yet to be determined. On July 11, England secured its place in the semi-finals, where it will meet Argentina, with France and Spain competing in the other. Both matches take place on July 14 and 15, respectively.44
