FIFA Museum Tickets Zurich

The FIFA Museum in Zurich's Enge district

The FIFA Museum opened in 2016 in Zurich's Enge district, a short distance from Lake Zurich, and it is the football museum of the organisation that runs the World Cup. It is spread over several floors, so you can follow the game from its beginnings in the nineteenth century to the global sport it is today.

If you are looking for FIFA Museum tickets, this page gives you one-day entry. Many travellers ask whether the FIFA Museum is worth visiting. If you follow football, the answer is yes: it is one of the best sports museums in Europe, and even casual fans enjoy the mix of history, film and games.

The World Cup galleries and the trophies

The heart of the museum is the World Cup history, told edition by edition with shirts, boots, balls, tickets, posters and the stories of the players and teams. You see how the tournament grew from a small event in 1930 into the biggest sporting occasion in the world, and you can compare the equipment of each era.

The trophy room is a highlight for photos, with the FIFA World Cup Trophy and other famous football prizes on display. Film screens show iconic goals, finals and celebrations, so you relive the moments as well as see the objects. Expect a mix of quiet reading and emotional highlights, depending on your favourite team.

Interactive football games and visiting with children

The museum is not just a place to look. Interactive areas let you test your reflexes, shooting and passing, and compete with friends or family. Children usually enjoy this part most, and the mix of games and exhibits makes it easy for a group with different interests to stay together.

Allow around one and a half to two hours, or longer if you like reading every panel. The museum is indoors, so it works well on a rainy day in Zurich. Ticket categories, including children, are shown in the booking panel for your date.

FIFA Museum opening hours and how to get there

FIFA Museum opening hours change by season and on public holidays, and the booking panel shows the entry times for your date. Weekday mornings are usually calmer, and afternoons on weekends are busier. Your ticket is valid for one day and you show your voucher at the entrance.

Getting to the FIFA Museum is easy: it is in the Enge district, a short train or tram ride from Zurich main station and close to the lake promenade, so you can combine the visit with a walk by the water. Guided tours and food and drinks are not part of this ticket, and the museum has its own visiting rules.
