Verizon and David Beckham Launch Golden Ticket Sweepstakes for FIFA World Cup 26

Verizon and David Beckham have launched the first-ever Golden Ticket sweepstakes for FIFA World Cup 26, providing customers with a unique opportunity to watch matches from the pitch itself. The sweepstakes offers hundreds of Golden Tickets that grant exclusive field access during portions of games, bringing fans closer to the action than ever before available to the general public. This initiative represents Verizon's commitment as the official telecommunications services sponsor to deliver unprecedented World Cup experiences directly to their customer base.

The sweepstakes entry period runs from November 6 through November 20, with customers able to enter exclusively through their My Verizon app via Verizon Access. This platform provides Verizon customers with special access to exclusive events and experiences simply for being on the Verizon network. For those not currently Verizon customers who wish to participate, the company directs potential entrants to visit nearby stores or www.verizon.com to switch services and become eligible for the sweepstakes.

This Golden Ticket initiative builds on Verizon's previously announced Ultimate Access campaign for FIFA World Cup 26, which launched in late September featuring David Beckham alongside an all-star roster of soccer talent including Tim Howard, Alyssa and Gisele Thompson, and Chucky Lozano. The company has committed to continuing these customer engagement efforts throughout 2026, promising thousands of free game tickets in addition to the hundreds of Golden Tickets for pitchside viewing access. Additional customer surprises, special events, merchandise collaborations, and exclusive experiences are planned as part of Verizon's comprehensive World Cup sponsorship activation strategy.

As the official telecommunications services sponsor for FIFA World Cup 26, Verizon positions this sweepstakes as delivering on their promise to bring customers closer to the World Cup than anyone else. The pitchside viewing opportunity represents what the company describes as a truly unprecedented and first-of-its-kind fan experience for a major international sporting event. More information about Verizon's FIFA World Cup initiatives is available at Verizon.com/FIFA, where customers can learn about additional opportunities and experiences being developed as part of the telecommunications company's comprehensive sponsorship package.
