Boston is a brilliant base for World Cup travellers, with Gillette Stadium hosting seven games and the city offering easy sightseeing between matches. Wander the Freedom Trail, feast on seafood at the harbour, and soak up the city’s historic charm.
Boston combines seamlessly with Philadelphia, New York and Washington, D.C. on an East Coast rail journey — perfect for catching multiple fixtures across classic American cities. After the football, consider a New England road trip or hop across the border to Toronto for a Canadian-American multi-centre adventure.

Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field hosts six dramatic matches, giving the city a lively tournament atmosphere. Between fixtures, explore the Liberty Bell, Reading Terminal Market and riverside museums — all easily reached from the compact downtown.
Perfectly positioned between New York and Washington, D.C., Philadelphia is ideal for a multi-city adventure. Quick flights also connect the city to Atlanta and Miami, making it easy to follow fixtures across the East and Southeast. Whether by road, rail or plane, it’s one of the most flexible World Cup hubs.

New York is the best-connected gateway for UK travellers, with multiple daily flights and easy access to the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey — host of eight fixtures, including the final on 19 July. Stay in Manhattan for world-class dining, museums and skyline views before travelling across the Hudson for match days.
New York pairs effortlessly with Boston and Philadelphia via road, rail or air, making it ideal for catching several fixtures. You can also create a spectacular dual-destination holiday by linking New York with Toronto (and Niagara Falls) or flying south to Miami for a big-city-meets-beach World Cup break.

Seattle hosts six World Cup games at Lumen Field, bringing global excitement to the heart of the Pacific Northwest. Between matches, browse the original Pike Place Market, enjoy fresh seafood, cruise across Puget Sound or take a ferry for dreamy views of Mount Rainier. The waters off Seattle are among North America’s best for whale watching, with orcas and humpbacks regularly seen. With easy links to Vancouver, San Francisco and Los Angeles, Seattle makes a brilliant starting point for a multi-city West Coast World Cup adventure.

San Francisco’s Levi’s Stadium welcomes six World Cup fixtures, giving fans the perfect blend of sport and sightseeing. Ride historic cable cars, explore Fisherman’s Wharf, tour Alcatraz Island and enjoy sunset views of the Golden Gate Bridge. The wider Bay Area offers wine country, beaches and redwood forests for those with extra days to explore. San Francisco links seamlessly with Seattle and Vancouver for northern fixtures, or with Los Angeles via flight, road trip or a scenic Californian rail journey.

Los Angeles hosts eight World Cup matches at the futuristic SoFi Stadium — including two games featuring the USA national team. Off the pitch, LA’s sunshine, beaches and Hollywood icons make it a spectacular place to base yourself. Explore Santa Monica, tour the movie studios, visit world-class museums or relax along the Pacific Coast Highway. LA combines easily with San Francisco or Las Vegas for additional fixtures, and is perfectly placed for exploring national parks or driving a classic stretch of Route 66.

Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium hosts seven World Cup matches, including the Bronze Final, ensuring an unforgettable atmosphere in a city famous for its sunshine and nightlife. Enjoy golden beaches, Art Deco architecture, rooftop bars and Cuban-inspired cuisine between fixtures. From Miami, it’s easy to reach Orlando’s theme parks, the Everglades, the Space Coast or the relaxed Florida Keys. Miami also pairs beautifully with New York or Atlanta for a wider, match-hopping adventure.

Atlanta hosts eight fixtures, including a World Cup Semi-Final, at the state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Explore the birthplace of Martin Luther King Jr., see whale sharks at the Georgia Aquarium, or visit the iconic World of Coca-Cola. Try classic Southern comfort food or swing by The Varsity, the world’s largest drive-in. With the world’s busiest airport, Atlanta offers exceptional connections to fellow host cities — and makes a great gateway to the Deep South for a music- and culture-filled road trip.

Kansas City stages six World Cup fixtures at Arrowhead Stadium, home of the Kansas City Chiefs. Expect lively fan zones, legendary barbecue, jazz clubs and a warm Midwestern welcome. From here, explore Missouri’s wine regions, the Lake of the Ozarks, or historic St. Louis with its iconic Gateway Arch. Kansas City connects easily to Boston, New York and Philadelphia — and is only a short drive from segments of the legendary Route 66 for those craving Americana charm.

Dallas becomes a major World Cup hub with nine matches, more than any other U.S. host city, being played at the AT&T Stadium. Enjoy the city’s vibrant arts districts, big flavours, fascinating museums and true Texas hospitality. Dallas pairs naturally with Houston for dual-city match breaks. You can also road-trip Route 66, visit Fort Worth’s Stockyards or extend your journey to New Orleans for jazz bars and Creole cuisine.

Houston hosts seven fixtures at NRG Stadium, offering fans a lively mix of culture and cosmopolitan charm. Discover the Space Center Houston, explore world-class museums, enjoy sprawling parks and sample the city’s famously diverse dining scene. Houston pairs seamlessly with Dallas, or can be included in a wider Texas or Southwest USA road trip featuring ranch stays, desert landscapes and dramatic canyon scenery.

Toronto hosts five World Cup fixtures at BMO Field — the first men’s World Cup matches ever held on Canadian soil. Between games, take in sweeping views from the CN Tower, explore artisan neighbourhoods, enjoy comedy clubs and discover the city’s vibrant multicultural food scene. Toronto is also a superb jumping-off point for wider adventures: marvel at Niagara Falls, explore Ottawa’s museums, or head into French-speaking Montreal and Quebec City. It’s a dynamic, friendly city offering an exciting blend of sport, culture and world-class attractions.

Vancouver lights up the West Coast with seven World Cup matches at BC Place — including two featuring Canada’s national team, guaranteeing an incredible atmosphere. When you’re not in the stadium, enjoy a city where mountains meet ocean: wander waterfront markets, sip pre-match craft beers in Gastown or spot orcas in the Salish Sea. Extend your stay to Vancouver Island for bear-watching, or board the luxurious Rocky Mountaineer to Banff and Lake Louise. For natural beauty and football fever in perfect harmony, Vancouver is hard to beat.
