2026 Match Schedule Overview
The tournament kicks off in June 2026 and runs through mid-July 2026, featuring over 100 matches across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The expanded format means:
- More games in more cities
- Multiple match days in each host city
- A packed calendar with weekday and weekend matches
Matches are organized into:
- Group Stage (June) – Daily fixtures across host cities
- Knockout Rounds (late June – early July) – Round of 16 & Quarterfinals
- Semifinals & Final (mid-July) – High-stakes matches culminating in the championship game
Now that the draw has happened, matches have been assigned to specific stadium dates in each host city, which triggers massive spikes in hotel demand. That’s why locking in your hotel early is one of the smartest moves you can make.
