Group D · FIFA World Cup 2026

USA fans watch the 2026 World Cup from Los Angeles (PDT, UTC-7) and Seattle (PDT, UTC-7). Their Group D matches kick off between 12:00 and 19:00 PT and 15:00 and 22:00 ET, covering afternoon and evening windows across the country’s domestic timezones.

What the schedule means for American fans

The United States is a co-host nation, and all three Group D matches take place at home venues. No timezone conversion is needed for fans attending in person or watching from the domestic timezones where these matches are played.

Group D local kickoff times across the USA

West Coast evenings, national afternoon and late-evening viewing

For fans on the West Coast, the Paraguay and Turkiye matches both arrive as evening kickoffs at 18:00 and 19:00 PT. The Australia match is a midday Saturday slot, accessible for the whole country. East Coast fans watching from New York or Boston see the matches at 21:00, 15:00, and 22:00, all within broadcast primetime or afternoon windows.

The span of timezones within the United States itself means viewing conditions vary by region. Mountain Time fans in Denver and Phoenix see the Australia match at 13:00, the Paraguay opener at 19:00, and the Turkiye match at 20:00. Central Time fans in Chicago see 14:00, 20:00, and 21:00.

The USMNT plays in front of home stadiums and home fans at two of the country’s largest football venues. SoFi Stadium seats 70,000 and Lumen Field seats 69,000. For global fans watching from Europe and Asia, these West Coast evening kickoffs land at inconvenient overnight hours, a reversal of the usual American experience watching European leagues.
