Miami’s World Cup 2026 match schedule released

By Jovani Davis (CNW)- Miami’s full slate of FIFA World Cup 2026 matches is now official, following the global tournament’s Final Draw and the publication of the complete schedule. The release marks a major step toward what will be the biggest World Cup in history — and an especially exciting moment for South Florida’s diverse community, including its large Caribbean-American population.

The 2026 tournament—spread across 16 host cities in Canada, Mexico, and the United States—will feature a record 104 matches. Organizers say the schedule was designed to cut travel for teams and fans while maximizing rest days between games. Kickoff times have also been finalized with the goal of creating the best possible conditions for players, in-stadium spectators and global audiences.

Miami prepares for seven matches

The Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens will stage seven matches, including four in the Group Stage, as the city gears up to welcome Brazil, Cabo Verde, Colombia, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Scotland and Uruguay to South Florida next year.

“Miami is ready to welcome the world,” said Alina Hudak, President & CEO of the FIFA World Cup 26 Miami Host Committee. “Our city represents the very essence of global fútbol culture, and hosting these FIFA World Cup 2026 matches will be a celebration of our diversity, passion, and world-class hospitality. This will be a moment our community remembers for generations.”
