Toronto hosts six matches at BMO Field — branded "Toronto Stadium" for the tournament — including Canada's group-stage opener against Bosnia and Herzegovina, the first men's World Cup game ever played on Canadian soil. The free FIFA Fan Festival runs the full tournament at Fort York and The Bentway (free entry, with a timed reservation required).

The city's official fan celebrations — free, no registration, big screens.
Fort York National Historic Site & The Bentway (250 Fort York Blvd)
The free FIFA fan zone runs all 22 event days from June 11 to July 19. General admission is free, but you must reserve a timed ticket online in advance (max four per transaction) — daily free capacity is limited and there's no re-entry on a general-admission ticket. Expect live match screenings, cultural performances and concerts, and local food vendors. Optional premium tiers ($100–$300; Casamigos Clubhouse, Pitchside Terrace, Garden Pavilion) add guaranteed entry and elevated lounges.
When: Match-day programming, June 11 – July 19, 2026
Official info →Take transit to the stadium
BMO Field and the Fan Festival sit at Exhibition Place on the waterfront. Ride the TTC streetcar (509/511) or take GO Transit to Exhibition Station — driving and parking near the lakeshore on match days is brutal.
Two airports
Toronto Pearson (YYZ) is the main international gateway, ~30 min by the UP Express train to Union Station downtown. Billy Bishop (YTZ) on the Toronto Islands is closer to the core for short-haul flights.
Where to stay
Stay downtown (Entertainment District, Harbourfront, or King West) for walkable access to the waterfront venues and nightlife; everything connects via streetcar and the UP Express.
Bring ID and a transit card
You're crossing into Canada — carry a passport. Load a PRESTO card or tap a contactless card for TTC/GO fares, and note all venue times are Eastern (one hour ahead of US Central).
