Many U.S. cities will be hosting games during the 2026 FIFA World Cup – but will any of them be in Michigan? The short answer is no, but Michigan World Cup fans can still find games a relatively short drive or flight away. The World Cup, taking place from Thursday, June 11 through the final on Sunday, July 19, will have games in 16 North American cities, 11 of them in the U.S. The closest host city Michiganders can reach is Toronto, which is hosting five group-stage games in June.
