Houston selected as a 2026 FIFA host!

Loading Image...

Houston has been selected as one of the 11 U.S. host cities for the FIFA World Cup 2026!

Houston’s world-class hosting credentials, infrastructure and energizing venues like NRG Stadium have hosted multiple large-scale sporting events and will provide the ultimate environment for international players to perform at their best.

Houston will ensure full stadiums and a truly global celebration of soccer, in and out of competition.

Houston is set to host World Cup matches alongside ten other cities in the U.S., three in Mexico, and two in Canada, respectfully, set to kick off in the summer of 2026. For the first time, the tournament will feature 48 teams, expanding the world’s biggest and most popular sporting event.

This is in 4 years… if hotels and restaurants need help now, this isn't the answer.

But this is really good for Houston!

@Weathergirl5 : Yep. Ever since Covid, those industries have suffered even AFTER the lockdown was lifted.

@sandman : I heard that there is a party to celebrate today and believe it or not....they do need to start preparing even if it is 4 years away. I heard some hotels need remodeling etc.
