World Cup 2022: Who, What, When, Where

Sunday, November 20 –
Sunday, December 18

Thirty-two international teams are set to compete in the 2022 FIFA World Cup, moved from its traditional berth in May, June, or July to avoid host country Qatar’s punishing summer heat. The U.S. plays first on the second day of the tournament, then faces England on the day after Thanksgiving. Wishing you could attend in person? The 2026 tourney should be a little easier to get to: Canada, Mexico, and the United States will jointly host the 24th FIFA World Cup in 16 cities across North America.
