Lincoln Financial Field
Philadelphia Stadium
Philadelphia Stadium is scheduled for group-stage matches and a knockout fixture, connecting the tournament to one of the United States' oldest sports cities.
Lincoln Financial Field sits in South Philadelphia's sports complex, close to the city's baseball, basketball, and hockey venues. For the World Cup it becomes Philadelphia Stadium, giving fans a host site with strong transit links, dense local sports culture, and a city center full of historic tourism. Its role is practical and symbolic: a major U.S. sports town joining the global football calendar.
Opened in 2003, Lincoln Financial Field replaced Veterans Stadium as the Eagles' home. It has hosted NFL playoff games, Army-Navy games, Copa America Centenario, Gold Cup matches, European club friendlies, concerts, and other large outdoor events.
