🇪🇸 Like in 2010, Plaza de Colón, hub for Spain fans at the World Cup | OneFootball

The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has confirmed that Madrid’s Plaza de Colón will be transformed into "Selection Square." This iconic space will be the official meeting point for all fans wishing to support the national team during the 2026 World Cup.

The venue will feature giant screens to watch the group-stage matches live. Admission will be completely free and open until full capacity is reached, allowing thousands of supporters to enjoy a unique shared experience.

In addition to broadcasting the matches, "Selection Square" will offer a wide variety of activities. Attendees will have access to an official store, a museum with a trophy exhibition, live music, leisure areas, and a varied food offering to liven up the football-filled days.

The opening schedule has already been set for the first fixtures. On June 15, for the opener against Cape Verde, and on June 21 against Saudi Arabia, the gates will be open from 12:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. However, the match on June 27 against Uruguay will not be shown due to its early-morning kickoff time.

'Casa de España' at World Cup host cities

At the same time, the RFEF will open "Casa de España" abroad for traveling fans. Strategic locations in cities such as Atlanta (United States) and Guadalajara (Mexico) will serve as hubs of support and celebration on international soil, connecting the team with its supporters around the world.
