New York / New Jersey at the 2026 World Cup
MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ hosts the final plus a heavy slate of group and knockout fixtures. The region doubles as a base for the whole tournament — NYC's hotel supply, the PATH across the Hudson, and direct rail to Philly and Boston make this the most logistics-friendly host.

Getting around on match day
EWR is 20 min from the stadium by car; NYC-based fans take NJ Transit from Penn Station to Secaucus Junction, then the Meadowlands rail shuttle (runs match days only, 10-min ride). Skip Midtown rideshare on match days — traffic through the Lincoln Tunnel is brutal.
