It’s been 32 years since the World Cup was played in an American city, and the tournament’s 2026 return to North America is one for the ages as soccer teams from around the globe battle to take home the $50 million in championship prize money.
The World Cup is a 104-match tournament that kicked off in Mexico on June 11 with daily kickoffs in major North American cities like Vancouver, Seattle, Monterrey, Houston, Miami, Atlanta and Los Angeles. The final game is slated for July 19 at New York New Jersey Stadium.
With teams from around the world competing for the title, global cuisine is front and center as restaurants owned by Food Network chefs welcome World Cup fans to their tables.
