The 2026 World Cup will be hosted by three countries – Mexico, Canada, and the USA – for the first time. But how many cities will host games and at which stadiums?
Where Are the 2026 World Cup Stadiums?
World Cup 2026 matches will be held in 16 stadiums across Mexico, Canada, and the USA. Two Canadian cities, three Mexican cities, and nine American cities host World Cup matches.
That’s the most stadiums for a World Cup since 2002, when South Korea and Japan had 20.
The host nations get the added benefit of playing in front of their fans, which should impact the soccer odds at the BetMGM sportsbook.
We’ll know where the World Cup odds favourites will play after the draw and the release of the schedule.
