How will the 2026 FIFA World Cup differ from the 1994 FIFA World Cup in the US?
More countries and more matches
There were only 24 countries at the 1994 FIFA World Cup in the US, playing a total of 52 matches (36 in the group stage.) In 2026, it is possible it could be as many as 104 fixtures (72 in the group stage.)
More host cities spread across time zones
USA '94 FIFA World Cup was a tournament largely held on the East Coast (Eastern Time, ET); of the nine host cities, only Stanford and Pasadena were on the West Coast (Pacific Time, PT) with just Chicago and Dallas in Central Time (CT).
In 2026, the World Cup will see 16 venues in three countries across time zones.
PT (4): Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles
CT (6): Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey, Dallas, Houston, Kansas City
ET (6): Atlanta, Miami, Boston, New York/New Jersey, Philadelphia, Toronto
