The FIFAe Finals 2026, which were due to take place in Jeddah from 16 to 25 October 2026, have been postponed. The decision was confirmed jointly by FIFA and the Saudi Esports Federation.
No new date has been set for the global esports tournament, and no alternative venue has been announced. Organizers have not yet released any details regarding ticket prices, nor have they outlined a refund procedure for fans who may have planned to attend.
Both parties indicated that further information about the rescheduled event will be shared at a later stage.
Why it matters
The FIFAe Finals are one of the most prominent competitive gaming events on the international calendar, drawing top players and large audiences. Hosting the tournament in Jeddah reflects Saudi Arabia's growing role as a destination for major esports and gaming competitions.
For residents and visitors in Jeddah and across the Kingdom who were looking forward to the event, the postponement means plans will need to wait until official updates are provided. Fans are advised to hold off on travel or accommodation arrangements until a confirmed date and venue are announced.
