Soccer fans better be ready to fork over some big bucks for food, drinks and souvenirs at World Cup 2026 in Los Angeles.

The first match in LA takes place Friday at SoFi Stadium between the US Men’s National Team and Paraguay. The fun kicks off at 6 p.m.

For those headed to the stadium to catch all the excitement on the pitch, be prepared to open up your wallets if you want to eat as there are some staggering prices for US World Cup concession items.

Fans can expect to pay $23 for some loaded BBQ brisket nachos or 20 bucks for a chopped brisket burrito. Or skip the buns and grab a BBQ salad for around $16.

Something called a Twinkie cheeseburger costs 22 bucks or you can get your hands on just a hotdog or Everything cookie, which each runs $10.

Thirsty? Expect to pay about $5 for a 20 oz water or nearly $8 for soft drinks.

Prices for cocktail drinks are shocking, with fans having to pay anywhere from $26-$20 for a signature drink, hard seltzer, or various types of beer.

The California Post also got a first look at all the merchandise and souvenirs at the stadium for soccer fans.
