Tournament Brief

The first 48-nation World Cup.

FIFA World Cup 2026 is the 23rd edition of the tournament — the first co-hosted by three nations, the first with 48 teams, and the first with 104 matches across 39 days.

From June 11 (opening match in Mexico City) to July 19 (final at MetLife Stadium, New York/New Jersey), every host city becomes its own version of matchday — Brazilian samba in Miami, Mexican waves in Estadio Azteca, supporter pubs in Toronto. I'm In is how locals open the door and how visitors find their way in.
