World Cup: games and promos in all 11 host cities

FIFA World Cup 26 · Fan Guide

World Cup Host Cities, Plus a Ballgame

June 11 to July 19 · 11 US Host Cities · Updated June 7, 2026

The World Cup takes over 11 US cities this summer, and every one of them has a Major League Baseball team down the road. Here is how to catch a local ballgame, with its giveaways and theme nights, between matches.

All 11 United States cities hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup also have a Major League Baseball team within reach of the stadium, so you can catch a local MLB home game between World Cup matches on the same trip.

The best window to pair the two is the group stage, June 11 to early July, when MLB teams are playing a full schedule. The MLB All-Star break, around July 13 to 16, pauses every baseball game during the World Cup semi-finals, so some mid-July host cities show no home games in that stretch. Baseball resumes July 17, in time to bookend the July 19 final. Each city card below maps the World Cup venue to its nearest ballpark, the home games that line up, and the giveaways on those dates.

Philadelphia · July 4 and July 14

A summer of two majors

Philadelphia hosts a World Cup Round of 16 at Lincoln Financial Field on July 4, 2026, Independence Day and America's 250th birthday, the first World Cup knockout match ever played on the Fourth, in the city where the country was founded. Ten days later the MLB All-Star Game comes to Citizens Bank Park next door on July 14. Two majors, one South Philadelphia complex, ten days apart.

Game day
Gate times
Gates open 90 minutes before first pitch for most games. Opening times can shift for doubleheaders, special events, and weather.
Parking
Stadium parking is limited and pricey, with the 164th Street Garage and River Avenue lots filling fast on big dates. Most fans skip driving and take the subway. Reserve pre-paid parking in advance if you do drive.
Transit
The 4, B, and D trains stop at 161st Street-Yankee Stadium, right outside the gates. Metro-North also runs to the Yankees-E. 153rd Street station on game days.
Accessibility
Yankee Stadium is fully ADA-accessible with wheelchair and companion seating on every level, elevators throughout, and accessible entry at all gates.
Nearby
The River Avenue strip under the 4 train is the classic pregame scene. Try Stan's Sports Bar, Billy's Sports Bar, or the Dugout, with the Hard Rock Cafe right at 161st and River.

Game day
Gate times
Gates open 1.5 hours before first pitch for day games, with parking lots opening 2 hours before.
Parking
Numbered lots surround the ballpark in the Arlington Entertainment District. General parking runs about $20 to $45, premium lots cost more, and all official lots are cashless, so reserve through ParkWhiz.
Transit
Arlington has no rail or major transit, so this is a drive-and-rideshare venue. The sanctioned rideshare zone is at the Chatman Cutoff on the east side.
Accessibility
Globe Life Field is fully accessible with wheelchair and companion seating, elevators and escalators, an ADA shuttle between lots and gates, and accessible parking in all general lots.
Nearby
Texas Live! sits right next to the ballpark with bars and restaurants, and the wider Arlington Entertainment District includes AT&T Stadium. The retractable roof and air conditioning beat the Texas heat.

Game day
Gate times
Parking and stadium gates open 2 hours and 30 minutes before first pitch. Early entry tickets get you in 3 hours early on select dates.
Parking
Lots are huge but fill on giveaway and marquee dates, and there is no re-entry once you exit. Buy parking in advance, and note that tailgating is not allowed at Chavez Ravine.
Transit
The free Dodger Stadium Express runs from Union Station starting about 90 minutes before first pitch, free for ticket holders, with a South Bay route on select games. The last return bus leaves roughly 45 minutes after the final out.
Accessibility
Dodger Stadium offers accessible parking across multiple lots and an ADA shuttle to the entry gates. Wheelchair and companion seating is available throughout the ballpark.
Nearby
Chavez Ravine sits apart from the city, so most pregame happens inside the gates or a short ride away in Echo Park, Chinatown, and along Sunset Boulevard.

Game day
Gate times
Gates open 1 hour before first pitch Monday through Thursday, and 90 minutes before Friday through Sunday.
Parking
Kauffman sits in the Truman Sports Complex ringed by large surface lots. Prepaid general parking runs about $21, tailgating is allowed, and lots are split into East and West sides you cannot cross between.
Transit
Public transit is limited given the suburban location. The RideKC 47-Broadway bus line serves the complex, but most fans drive. The K shares the complex with Arrowhead Stadium.
Accessibility
Kauffman Stadium is fully accessible with wheelchair and companion seating on every level and complimentary guest-assistance shuttles from the lots to the gates.
Nearby
The Truman Sports Complex is away from downtown with no walkable bars, so most fans tailgate. For pre- or post-game, the Power & Light District downtown is the go-to, about a 15-minute drive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cities are hosting the 2026 World Cup in the United States?

Eleven US cities host 2026 World Cup matches: New York and New Jersey, Dallas, Atlanta, Miami, Los Angeles, Boston, Kansas City, Houston, Seattle, Philadelphia, and the San Francisco Bay Area. Together they stage 78 of the tournament's 104 matches, including both semi-finals, the third-place play-off, and the Final at MetLife Stadium on July 19, 2026.

Can I catch an MLB game while I am in town for the World Cup?

Yes. Every US host city has a Major League Baseball team near the stadium, several within walking distance, so you can pair a World Cup match with a ballgame. The best overlap is the group stage, June 11 to early July. The MLB All-Star break, around July 13 to 16, pauses all baseball during the semi-finals, then games resume on July 17, before the final.

When and where is the 2026 World Cup final?

The 2026 World Cup final is on Sunday, July 19, 2026 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just outside New York City. MetLife hosts eight matches in total. Yankee Stadium is about 12 miles away and Citi Field about 15, so a Yankees or Mets home game can bookend final weekend.

Why is there a World Cup match in Philadelphia on July 4?

Philadelphia hosts a World Cup Round of 16 at Lincoln Financial Field on July 4, 2026, Independence Day and America's 250th birthday, the first World Cup knockout match ever played on the Fourth. Ten days later the city hosts the MLB All-Star Game next door at Citizens Bank Park on July 14. One city, two majors, in one summer.

What is the best time to combine a World Cup trip with baseball?

The group stage, June 11 to early July, is the best window to pair the World Cup with a local MLB home game, because teams are playing a full schedule. From about July 13 to 16 the MLB All-Star break pauses every game, so mid-July host cities show no home dates during the semi-finals. Baseball resumes July 17, so a ballgame can still bookend the July 19 final.
