The World’s Biggest Soccer Tournament is Coming to Boston in Summer 2026

Some of America’s most die-hard sports fans call Boston home, making the neighboring Foxborough, MA, one of the most convivial places to catch up to seven matches (including a quarter-final) from the biggest World Cup games in history. After cheering and nail-biting with fellow fans at Gillette Stadium (which will be rebranded as Boston Stadium for the games), find respite from the chaos of Foxborough with a stay at The Whitney Hotel Boston.
