All World Cup Soccer Events
Atlanta is set up for a big summer of soccer in 2026, and Mercedes-Benz Stadium (officially known as Atlanta Stadium for the tournament) will be hosting eight matches, including a semifinal on July 15. The run includes five group-stage dates (June 15, 18, 21, 24, and 27) plus a date of the new Round of 32 on July 1 and a Round of 16 on July 7, so you can plan a quick weekend or stack multiple matchdays. If you are tracking World Cup 2026 tickets, this is one of the cleanest schedules to build around.
The Mercedes-Benz Stadium capacity for the World Cup 26 setup is listed at 75,000, and Atlanta’s group-stage slate features a true mix of styles and storylines. Teams scheduled to play here include Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Haiti, South Africa, and Uzbekistan, plus playoff qualifiers that will be finalized closer to kickoff. One matchup to circle now is Spain vs. Cape Verde on June 15.
Start by picking the matchday that fits your trip, then lock in the logistics: MARTA timing, gate entry, and where you want to spend your pregame window around the stadium district. With midday kickoffs in the group stage and knockout rounds that land in early July, Atlanta gives you multiple chances to plan smart and keep the day moving.
