Why travel for global football events
Long a key part of the cultural landscape in Europe and South America, football’s now enjoying its moment in the spotlight in North America too – and there are plenty of exciting matches to look forward to in 2026, set to take place in exciting cities across the US, Canada and Mexico. What could be better than coming together with fans from around the globe and accompanying your team through the highs and lows – all whilst soaking up the unique buzz of the fan zones and the electric stadium atmosphere?
Types of football travellers and where to stay
- Solo supporters: if you’re a die-hard fan, you may well want to go on a solo trip to follow your team across the country – or even across the world – in their quest for victory. Some of the best kinds of hotels for this kind of sports travel are accommodation close to the stadium for maximum convenience and city-centre hotels for easy access to major attractions on non-match days. You might also want to be within easy reach of communal fan bars so that you can dissect each match’s outcome with like-minded supporters.
- Couples: nothing says ‘romance’ like the joint emotional journey of a 90-minute football game. If sharing the highs and lows in the stands isn’t enough for you lovebirds, up the ante off the pitch, too, by booking a chic hotel with an on-site spa and restaurant. If you can find somewhere with a rooftop bar, even better – that’s the perfect place to gaze at a stunning sunset with your beloved whilst (hopefully) celebrating your team’s win.
- Friends & fan groups: if the whole gang’s keen to see the beautiful game up close, you’ve got the workings of a great trip on your hands. After all, what could be better than indulging your hobby with a big group of friends? Consider booking a hotel with a shared lounge area so that you can chill out after leaving the stadium – or opt for somewhere close to the city’s nightlife district so that you can keep the party going even after the final whistle.
- Families: even the youngest budding football stars would be thrilled to catch a glimpse of their idols up close. A family trip to see a world-class football game is an unforgettable experience for kids and adults alike. Keep them happy once the action’s over by booking a child-friendly hotel with a pool, slides and maybe even a kids’ club – and make life easy for yourself by choosing a hotel near football venues or somewhere with easy transport links.
Venues
There is a whole host of stunning stadiums to discover. From Texas’s AT&T Stadium, home to one of the largest HD screens in the world, to Georgia’s iconic falcon-inspired Mercedes-Benz Stadium, the venues are a testament to architectural prowess. And, of course, their sizes vary, too: you’ve got everything from New York’s mammoth MetLife stadium (78,576 seats) to Toronto’s cosier BMO Field stadium (44,315 seats) to enjoy.
Football travel planning tips
- When to book: hotels can fill up fast during major tournaments, so it’s worth booking early to maximise your chances of finding a well-located spot. You might even be able to snap up a budget-friendly sports travel deal, too.
- Where to stay: for maximum convenience, pick a hotel within walking distance of the stadium. That not only makes getting from A to B as quick and easy as possible, but also lets you soak up the atmosphere in the surrounding fan zones.
- What to pack: your team’s scarf or shirt aside, it’s worth being pragmatic with your packing. You might be on your feet cheering for most of the game, so comfy shoes are a must – as is a waterproof jacket, just in case the weather takes a turn. Don’t forget your power bank, too: you don’t want your mobile phone to run out of power just as you snap a shot of the winning goal.
- How to get there: car parking can be in short supply during large-scale events, so consider taking public transport or a rideshare to get to your destination. Certain venues even run shuttle buses, which makes the whole experience seamless.
Why book with Hotels.com for your football trip
Booking your sports trip accommodation through Hotels.com lets you find exactly what you need. A spacious suite with space for all of your footy-mad gang? A cheerful, kid-friendly hotel that suits the whole family? Or a high-end boutique residence where you and your beloved can toast your favourite team’s success? Hotels.com has plenty of great hotels for football fans. And the map feature helps you make sure your accommodation is exactly where you want it, too – whether that’s near the stadium or the city centre. Plus, many Hotels.com properties offer convenient benefits like daily housekeeping, on-site pools and in-house gyms, meaning they’re the ideal home away from home during busy trips when, say, you’d rather be celebrating in the fan zone than making your bed. Not yet sure where your team’s going to be playing? Use the ‘free cancellation’ filter to see properties with maximum flexibility.* One last tip: make sure you join Hotels.com’s loyalty programme, where instant savings and great rewards await. We can’t promise your team will win – but we can promise a smooth, seamless stay.
Frequently asked questions
Which cities will host major international football matches in 2026?
Exciting events are planned for 2026 and they will take place in the US, Canada and Mexico. Matches will be played at some of the most unique cities in North America as the world looks on. From vibrant Guadalajara and glitzy LA to BBQ-loving Kansas City, sun-soaked Miami and much more, a trip to this football spectacular is also a great opportunity to discover (or re-discover) amazing destinations.
Can I find hotels close to football stadiums?
Absolutely. Just use Hotels.com’s handy map feature to get an overview of what’s where. Whether you’re looking for accommodation within walking distance of the stadium itself, say a hotel near the NRG Stadium or close to public transportation, this is an easy way to make sure that you’re where you need to be. Plus, the handy filters in the map view, covering everything from price to star rating, help you refine your search even more.
Why choose Hotels.com for football travel?
Hotels.com’s wide range of sports trip hotels – from affordable options near stadiums to luxe lodgings in the heart of the city centre – means you’re sure to find what you need for your football stay. With the array of filters, spanning everything from key amenities to cancellation options and genuine user reviews, it couldn’t be easier for you to pin down your perfect home away from home. And thanks to the Hotels.com loyalty programme, your easy-to-book stay just got even more rewarding, too, with discounts and Member Prices available for selected hotels.
Should I book early or wait for last-minute deals?
Often, it can be smart to book your sports trip hotel well in advance – major football events attract large crowds, so it’s worth getting ahead of the curve and reserving your accommodation early if you want to stay in a prime location. Not yet sure where your team’s going to be playing? Simply select a property with free cancellation for the reassurance of a confirmed reservation and the flexibility you need – make sure you carefully read the terms and conditions before booking – and some accommodations might offer last-minute discounts to fill any remaining rooms.
Are hotels a good option for families travelling for football?
Definitely – with a host of family-friendly features, ranging from in-room cots to on-site pools, staying in a hotel is a fantastic way to make your family football trip a breeze. After all, what could be easier than waking up in a spacious room specifically designed with families in mind, before strolling down to the breakfast buffet with all the pancakes and waffles a young football fan could desire? And that’s even before you’ve considered the ease of walking from the hotel’s central location to the stadium itself or kid-friendly activities to keep little ones entertained after the match is over.
Can youth or amateur football teams book hotels through Hotels.com?
Football teams of all abilities are welcome to book their accommodation through Hotels.com. In fact, we make it easy for you to find a great football travel hotel, with search filters covering everything from in-house gyms to laundry facilities – so you needn’t pause your training or re-wear dirty kit during your stay.
Are there hotels suited for groups of friends?
Yes: Hotels.com’s wide range of accommodation options includes plenty of lodgings for large groups. Reserve a series of twin rooms or even a suite, for plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Bonus points if you book a football travel hotel with a rooftop bar or other social space where you can watch televised matches and engage in the all-important post-game discussions.
What if I want to avoid the football crowds?
Swap corners for cacti with a weekend in Tucson, headers for hiking with a trip to British Columbia or penalties for paddleboarding with a stay in Key West. If football is the last thing you’re interested in, Hotels.com has plenty of great accommodation options where you can make memories your way, whilst everyone else is focused on the pitch.
