Frequently asked questions

When is the FIFA World Cup 2026?

The 2026 FIFA World Cup runs from June 11 through July 19, 2026, with 104 matches across 16 host cities in the USA, Canada, and Mexico — the first World Cup with three host nations.

Where is the World Cup 2026 final being played?

The Final is on July 19, 2026 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey (capacity 87,000 — the largest US World Cup venue). The Opening Match is on June 11 at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

Will eVTOL air taxis be available for World Cup 2026?

First US revenue passenger eVTOL service is targeted for late 2026, with the FAA eIPP cohort (NYC, Dallas, Houston, Miami, Tampa, Orlando) leading the launch. For most fans, helicopter charters are the realistic premium air-transfer option for the tournament window.

Which host cities have the best airport-to-stadium connectivity?

Toronto City Airport (YTZ) is only 1 mile from BMO Field — the closest pairing. Philadelphia (PHL → Lincoln Financial Field, 5 miles) and Los Angeles (LAX → SoFi, 4 miles) are also notably close. Boston (BOS → Gillette, 28 miles) is the longest US transfer.
