FIFA World Cup 2026 Schedule

The 2026 FIFA World Cup, the first 48-team edition, is co-hosted by Canada, Mexico and the United States and runs from June 11, 2026 to July 19, 2026 -- 104 matches across 39 days. The expanded field is split into 12 first-round groups of four; the top two from each group plus the eight best third-placed sides advance to a new Round of 32, lifting the knockout bracket to six rounds. Group-stage matches run from June 11, 2026 to June 28, 2026, with all 72 first-round games played before the Round of 32 begins on June 28, 2026. From there the format is straight elimination -- 90 minutes, then extra time and penalties if level -- all the way through to the Final. All 48 qualified nations are listed below as quick filter chips, and every fixture shows kick-off in your timezone with a one-tap reminder option.
