Football fans in Canada will be able to watch selected FIFA World Cup 2026 matches live on the big screen at participating Cineplex theatres, as part of a partnership between Cineplex and TSN. The screenings offer families, communities and football supporters a more affordable way to enjoy the tournament together without attending the matches in stadiums.
According to Cineplex, tickets became available on May 15, 2026, online and at participating theatre box offices. Tickets are priced at $9.99 when purchased in theatre, while online purchases may include a booking fee of up to $1.50, plus applicable taxes.
Cineplex says tickets will be released in stages, beginning with selected group-stage matches, with more games expected to become available closer to match day. The company also notes that participating theatres may vary by day and match, so fans should always confirm the exact theatre, date and showtime before booking.
The screenings are expected to attract strong interest for Canada’s matches, major international fixtures, Arab national team games, the semi-finals, the third-place match and the final.
Selected matches listed by Cineplex
Important note: Cineplex currently lists selected match dates on its sports events page. Theatre entry times and final showtimes may vary by location, so fans should check the official booking page for each match before purchasing tickets.

What fans should know before booking
The advertised $9.99 price is the in-theatre ticket price before taxes and any possible online booking fees. Not every participating theatre will show every match, and additional games may be added later through staged ticket releases. Food and beverage options will be available for purchase, and alcoholic beverages may be sold only where allowed by provincial liquor laws.
For the best experience, fans should visit Cineplex’s sports events page, choose the match they want to watch, check the available theatre locations, confirm the final showtime and review the total price before completing the booking.
