MetLife Stadium will be the home to the 2026 FIFA World Cup final, the organization announced on Sunday. 

The game will be played July 19, 2026, in East Rutherford, New Jersey – a site with a capacity of 82,500.

“As an advocate for this region, and a lifelong soccer fan, I am thrilled that FIFA chose to place their trust in New York New Jersey to host the historic FIFA World Cup 26 Final,” New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy said, per ESPN. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our entire region; hosting the Final provides NYNJ an unparalleled platform to brilliantly showcase what we stand for – diversity, equality, access, and inclusion.”

The World Cup will also see 48 teams in the bracket for the first time in history, expanding from 32 teams.
