The final game of the 2026 FIFA World Cup will be played at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, in the United States. It is scheduled for July 19, 2026.
Venue details
MetLife Stadium, sometimes referred to in event coverage as the New York/New Jersey venue, was announced as the host of the tournament’s championship match. The stadium is in East Rutherford, which is part of the New York metropolitan area.
What that means
The 2026 World Cup is being staged across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, but the final itself is set for the U.S. site in New Jersey. That gives the event a single, fixed finish point after a tournament spread over multiple host cities.
