World Cup 2026 calendar: Download your FREE calendar for Google and iCal for every game on Pacific Daylight Time

World Cup 2026 calendar.

World Cup 2026 will be football's biggest-ever international tournament. Hosted in the United States, Mexico and Canada, it will see 48 teams play in 104 matches in June and July this year.

World Cup 2026 is sure to be an unwieldy beast, laden with drama and controversy but surely impossible to consume whole. Staying organised is a must for fans who want to take in as much as possible.

World Cup fixtures will take place across 13 different kick-off times between June 11 and July 19, so staying on top of it all will be a big challenge even for the most dedicated.
