About this stadium

Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, CA is one of the signature World Cup 2026 sites, with a listed tournament capacity of 68,500 and a hybrid playing surface. It is a modern stadium built for premium-event scale and broadcast presentation.

Its assignment as the R16 host underlines how central it is to FIFA's tournament plan. Silicon Valley gives the tournament a modern corporate and tech-facing backdrop, but the Bay Area also carries deep football history and one of the most international crowds in the US.
