World Cup 2026 Schedule

Every World Cup 2026 match in one calendar—from the group stage across North America through the Round of 32, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the final on July 19.

Kickoffs are shown in Eastern Time (ET) for consistency across US, Canadian, and Mexican venues. When you travel, convert from ET to local time in your host city.

Use Today’s matches for the current slate, or Tomorrow for the next day’s fixtures. Group-stage games are listed by group; knockout ties link to the bracket view so you can see how winners progress.

This is the canonical URL for World Cup 2026 fixture calendars. Overview content stays on /world-cup-2026; live 'today' slices stay on /today and /world-cup-games-today.

Eighty group matches plus knockouts create a five-week arc. Filter mentally by group, city, or stage using row labels.

Kickoffs default to Eastern Time for US-centric planning. Stadium pages note local context when venues cross time zones.

When organisers move a kickoff, match detail pages update first; the schedule table follows confirmed times.

Group-stage blocks run June 2026; knockout rounds fill July until the final. Rows show ET kickoffs unless a match note lists local stadium time.
