FIFA’s World Cup 2026 is going to be a sports spectacle unlike any other.
For the first time ever, the world’s most prestigious soccer tournament will be hosted across three countries − the United States, Canada and Mexico.
More teams than ever will participate in the showcase event − 48 nations to be exact − setting a new World Cup record.
And even better news for soccer fans in the New York/New Jersey area − World Cup matches will be played at MetLife Stadium, including the 2026 World Cup Final, it was announced by FIFA on Sunday.
Team USA will play its group stage matches in California and Seattle. The World Cup semifinals will be played in Arlington, Texas, and Atlanta.
MetLife Stadium will host a total of eight matches: five in the group stage, one in the Round of 32, one in the Round of 16, and the World Cup 2026 Final on July 19, 2026.
