The final and the biggest venues

The showpiece grounds are in the United States. MetLife Stadium in New York/New Jersey hosts the final on 19 July 2026, while AT&T Stadium in Dallas is the largest venue of all at around 94,000. Big-capacity homes like SoFi in Los Angeles, Mercedes-Benz in Atlanta and Levi’s in the San Francisco Bay Area are built for the latter knockout rounds.

Estadio Azteca: the historic one

No venue carries more history than Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, which staged the opening match on 11 June between Mexico and South Africa. With 2026, the Azteca becomes the first stadium ever to host matches at three different World Cups, after 1970 and 1986, the tournaments of Pelé and Diego Maradona.

Canada’s World Cup 2026 stadiums

Canada hosts men’s World Cup matches for the first time, with Toronto and Vancouver sharing the games between them. BC Place in Vancouver is the larger of the two at around 54,000, while BMO Field in Toronto, home of Toronto FC and around 45,000, is the smallest stadium at the whole tournament. Both stage Canada’s group games, so they are the grounds Canadian fans will be chasing tickets for.
