16 different venues will host the World Cup this summer across Canada, the USA, and Mexico. Find out which is #1 in our ranking.
The venue for the first game of the 2026 World Cup is also its best. When it comes to culture and prestige, no venue means more in the world of soccer than the sporting cathedral inNothing beats seeing the Azteca adorned with flags from all the competing nations at the World Cup.
My personal pick for the best modern stadium in the World Cup, SoFi Stadium, will host the U.S. Men's National Team as they start their World Cup against Paraguay. A gem out near Hollywood, it is built for the biggest and brightest spectacles in sport and entertainment. Atlanta's venue is right there alongside L.A.
's when it comes to the best America has to offer: large, comfortable, perfectly built for pomp and circumstance. Mercedes-Benz Stadium has been home to some of the biggest games held in the country over the last decade, and it's been a perfect home for Atlanta FC in the MLS. Jerry's World has always felt destined to host the World Cup.
Although it's been overtaken by Los Angeles and Atlanta in my opinion, when it comes to the best stadiums in the United States, it's still by far the biggest and a sight to behold for any traveling fans. While the secondary Mexican stadium doesn't have the bells and whistles of many other American venues, I have it in the top five for the atmosphere expected from diehard C.F. Monterrey fans.
Monterrey fans pack what they call"The Steel Giant" more than any other fanbase in the Mexican domestic league, and it should be electric regardless of which nations are playing there this summer.10. Estadio Jalisco 14. MetLife Stadium
