When and Where England will play at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Full match schedule, date, times, venues.
England now have a fully confirmed schedule for their 2026 World Cup group stage after FIFA released the match venues and kick-off times for all 104 fixtures across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The Three Lions will open their campaign against Croatia on Wednesday, June 17, with the match set for Dallas and kicking off at 9pm UK time. Their second outing comes six days later, when they meet Ghana in Boston on Tuesday, June 23, also at 9pm UK time.
England’s final group-stage match will take place on Saturday, June 27, against Panama in New York, starting at 10pm UK time. Manager Thomas Tuchel has acknowledged the challenge of the group, noting that Croatia bring significant World Cup pedigree and Ghana and Panama should not be underestimated.
Should England top Group L, their potential knockout path could include clashes with Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, before a possible final against France or Spain, two of the tournament favourites.
Overall, England enter the competition as a top seed but face a demanding group that will require focus from the opening whistle in Dallas.
