Not a bad time to be a Kansas City sports fan! 🏈 Super Bowl ⚾️Bobby Whitt Jr ⚽️World Cup (including 2 knockout games) #ChiefsKingdom #Royals #KC2026

Exciting news for the Soccer Capital of America! ⚽️ Yesterday, @FIFAcom announced that #KC will host SIX matches for @FIFAWorldCup 26, including a quarterfinal match! @FWC26KansasCity #FIFAWorldCup26 #KC2026 #SoccerCapitalofAmerica kansascityfwc26.com/kansas-city-se…

In 2026, the USA will turn 250, Major League Soccer will turn 30, and the #SoccerCapitalofAmerica will host a FIFA #WorldCup quarterfinal! Can’t wait! #kc2026 | #FlyoverCountryIsAMyth

That means they will train and stage for the three-game group stage from Kansas City. That impact, which would draw their fans here as well, would mean a monthlong stay in our hotels, eating our food and boosting our economy. It would also just be fun as heck IMO! #KC2026

@GEHAField Here's what you need to know, Kansas City soccer fans, you beautiful lot of crazies you #KC2026: kshb.com/sports/world-c…

For those wondering, World Cup qualifying won't be settled for another 18 months or so. We won't know who's coming for those four group-stage games for another two years. But that quarterfinal will be absolutely amazing to have at @GEHAField. Incredible! #KC2026

To recap, Kansas City landed six 2026 World Cup matches, which is shy of the 104 that I was hoping for but a good haul nonetheless. The 4 group-stage games in 2026 will be June 16, June 20, June 25 and June 27 - plus a July 3 Round of 32 match and July 11 quarterfinal. #KC2026

The semifinals will be in Dallas and Atlanta. Los Angeles, Miami and Boston landed the other quarterfinals. #KC2026

Kansas City is one of four cities to get World Cup quarterfinal match. 4 group stage matches and 1 knockout round match as well in KC. 6 total matches will be in KC in 2026! 😎⚽️🏟️ #kc2026 #worldcup #soccer #usa #fifa #worldcup2026 #kc #kcmo #missouri

Kansas City will host a Round of 32 game in the knockout stage on Friday, July 3, and a World Cup quarterfinal on Saturday, July 11. #KC2026

6 games for Kansas City!! #Kc2026 #KansasCity26 @FWC26KansasCity

The game, which I assume will be Argentina with Messi returning for one final ride, against #USMNT on Sunday, July 19. But Kansas City got a quarterfinal! That's six total games @GEHAField. #KC2026

The FIFA 2026 World Cup final will be played at New York, which is about as predictable as predictable gets. #KC2026

@vikesroyal No, it'll be in the U.S. I can't see Mexico getting the opening match and the final. #KC2026

Miami will host the third-place game/bronze-medal match. #KC2026

It does not appear Kansas City landed a Round of 16 game. Dallas gets two Round of 32 games (leaving none for Guadalajara), while the Round of 16 hosts are Vancouver, Seattle, Mexico City, Houston, Dallas, Atlanta, Philadelphia and NY/NJ. #KC2026

Kansas City also will get one Round of 32 game in the knockout stage on the last match day of that round. #KC2026
