Budweiser is giving away two free tickets to the FIFA World Cup 26™ Final with a fun Michael Owen treasure hunt!
Imagine the Easter Bunny, but for the FIFA World Cup™, and instead of chocolate eggs, there’s a shiny golden Ballon d’Or! That’s how former England star Michael Owen is surprising fans with an awesome giveaway: two tickets to the FIFA World Cup™ Final in New York.
The football fever is in full swing, with the world’s biggest stars putting on an amazing show. Goal scorers like Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi have already made history, and legends like Erling Haaland, Mo Salah, and Harry Kane are lighting up the tournament. It’s been the highest-scoring group stage ever, even before most teams have played their third game! With England likely moving on to the knockout rounds, the excitement is only getting bigger.
Since New York feels like a world away for fans watching at home, Budweiser has teamed up with Michael Owen to send two lucky people to the Big Apple to cheer England on and hopefully bring the trophy home. And guess what? To enter, all you need to do is visit a Wetherspoons pub.
England’s journey to New York could see them facing teams like Mexico, Brazil, and Portugal. With manager Tuchel’s smart tactics and a talented squad, the team looks ready to take on the world’s best.
Here’s how you can have a chance at winning: Budweiser has hidden Michael Owen in a Wetherspoons somewhere in the UK, and fans just need to find him. On June 27, Owen will be at a ‘spoons with the Budweiser UK team, and those wanting a shot at the tickets can scan a QR code at the door to enter a prize draw. Two lucky fans will win tickets to the FIFA World Cup™ Final!
Budweiser UK will share hints on social media to help you find Michael Owen and plan your visit. This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance, with winners joining 82,498 fans witnessing football history. Whether it’s England ending 60 years without a win, Messi leading Argentina to glory, or a clash between European giants France and Spain, this event will be unforgettable.
The winners will also get first-class seats to an incredible half-time show featuring Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Madonna, Shakira, and BTS.
We’re all hoping to see Harry Kane lead the Three Lions onto the pitch. After a tough 0-0 draw with Ghana, England looks stronger than ever, with a great start against Croatia and smart tactics from coach Tuchel. His passionate leadership has inspired players like Jude Bellingham and Jordan Pickford, who left the last game smiling and energized.
While the road ahead is long, England’s chances have never looked better. And even if they don’t win it all, this free chance to watch history live is too good to miss.
With World Cup ticket prices so high, this could be your lucky break—all you have to do is find Michael Owen, grab a Budweiser or Bud Zero at the pub, and enter.
