FIFA World Cup 2026 Travel Guide
Philadelphia will host six matches during the 2026 FIFA World Cup at Lincoln Financial Field, including a Round of 16 clash on July 4 — a knockout game on American Independence Day, in the city where the Declaration was signed.
For fans heading to Philly, makes a lot of sense. Lincoln Financial Field sits in South Philadelphia’s Stadium District, just a short drive or ride from Center City and the airport. The area sees most of its foot traffic on event days, but it’s well connected by public transit — the Broad Street Line runs right to NRG Station, a few minutes’ walk from the gates. Rideshares are plentiful, and some hotels may run game-day shuttles, it’s worth checking directly with your concierge.
