World Cup 2026 Host Venues

The FIFA World Cup 2026 will be the largest tournament in history — 48 teams, 104 matches, played across 16 host stadiums in three countries. From the opening match at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City on June 11 to the final at MetLife Stadium near New York on July 19, every venue tells a piece of football history.

This collection covers all 16 host venues. Most are NFL stadiums temporarily reconfigured for soccer — natural grass laid over the turf, sightlines reworked, capacities adjusted. A few, like Estadio Azteca (the only stadium to host the final in 1970, 1986, and now 2026) and BMO Field in Toronto, are purpose-built football grounds with deep histories.

United States — 11 host cities: Atlanta, Boston (Foxborough), Dallas (Arlington), Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles (Inglewood), Miami, New York/New Jersey (East Rutherford), Philadelphia, San Francisco Bay Area (Santa Clara), and Seattle.

Canada — 2 host cities: Toronto (BMO Field) and Vancouver (BC Place).

Mexico — 3 host cities: Mexico City (Estadio Azteca), Guadalajara (Estadio AKRON), and Monterrey (Estadio BBVA).
