FIFA World Cup 2026 Travel Guide
Like the Olympic Games, the FIFA World Cup — the biggest soccer tournament in the world — is held every four years in a new host country each time. In 2026, it will take place throughout North America, i.e. in the US, Canada, and Mexico, but the US will host more games than the other two nations. Among the 11 US cities welcoming players and fans for the sporting event, is Boston. A total of seven matches will take place in Boston’s Gillette Stadium during the 39-day tournament.
