Where will Argentina play their World Cup 2026 matches? | OneFootball

In the draw on December 5th, the Argentine National Team learned about their opponents and their path in the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. The following day, FIFA confirmed the official schedule for the entire competition, including venues and times. Below are the locations where the defending world champion team will play their respective matches.

Argentina's debut will be against Algeria in Kansas City, Missouri, at the Arrowhead Stadium, which has a capacity of nearly 77,000 spectators. Then, the other two group stage matches will be in Dallas, Texas, at the AT&T Stadium, which holds 80,000 people. There, the Albiceleste will first face Austria and then Jordan.

The debut stadium for the team led by Lionel Scaloni is that of the Kansas City Chiefs, an NFL team. The venue has little experience in soccer tournaments, as it only hosted Uruguay's victory over the United States in the 2024 Copa América.

The AT&T Stadium, despite also being an NFL venue (Dallas Cowboys), has a different repertoire in soccer: since its founding in 2009, it has hosted the CONCACAF Gold Cup on several occasions, as well as being a venue for the 2024 Copa América. Additionally, Argentina played a friendly against Mexico there in 2015, which ended 2-2. There, the Argentine team will play against Austria and Jordan.
