Which stadium in Atlanta host World Cup matches

All eight World Cup fixtures in Atlanta will be held at the city's flagship venue, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, temporarily renamed "Atlanta Stadium" for the tournament. Nestled in the heart of downtown Atlanta, the futuristic arena boasts a retractable roof that opens like a camera lens, a colossal 360-degree halo screen that wraps around the entire stadium, and a reputation for delivering an unforgettable matchday experience. Home to the Atlanta Falcons of the National Football League and Atlanta United FC of Major League Soccer, it was opened in 2017 to replace the aging Georgia Dome, which had played host to some of Atlanta's largest events for 25 years.

How to get to Atlanta

If you're flying from the UK, the easiest route is a direct flight from London Heathrow to Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, one of the busiest in the world. The journey takes around 9-10 hours, and once you land, getting into the city centre is simple. The MARTA train, Red or Gold Line, runs straight from the airport to downtown in about 20 minutes. If that train is not for you, rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft are widely available, and if you're just exploring locally, scooter rentals like Bird and Lime are an easy way to get around. Driving is also an option, but traffic can be heavy on matchdays, so public transport is often the smarter choice!

In Atlanta, MARTA-accessible means a location is reachable via the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA), the city's public transit system, which includes: Trains, buses and walking connections. Both the Mercedes-Benz Stadium and the Centennial Olympic Park are accessible via MARTA. So, all you need to do is get off at GWCC/CNN Center Station, which is on the Blue/green line, and both venues are within a 5-minute walk.

Travel information between connected cities

Atlanta is part of the Eastern Region, which includes Boston, Miami, Philadelphia, New York/New Jersey and Toronto, all of which are connected by the United States' main trainline, Amtrak. The train journeys can be long, but Amtrak trains are very comfortable and often have scenic views as you travel.

If you've got tickets for a World Cup fixture but would prefer not to get the train, flights between these host cities are frequent and affordable, especially via Delta and Southwest Airlines. Catching a domestic flight is also considered to be the quickest way of travelling between the host cities in the Eastern region, so it could save you plenty of time if you are on a tight schedule.

Football history in Atlanta

Atlanta hasn't traditionally been seen as a football city, although it did welcome Pele all the way back in 1968, while the legendary footballer was still playing for Santos. For decades, the spotlight leaned heavily towards American football, basketball, and baseball. After the Atlanta Apollos folded in 1981, local football fans endured a 30-year wait for a professional team to rally behind. But that wait ended in 2014 with the founding of Atlanta United, and within just three seasons, the club had firmly established itself as a force in Major League Soccer (MLS).

Since then, the Five Stripes have drawn Premier League pedigree to the American South, with players like Kenwyne Jones, Brad Guzan, and Miguel Almirón all playing key roles in the club's early rise. Their rapid ascent is reflected in the trophy haul, an MLS Cup, a U.S. Open Cup, and a Campeones Cup, all within their first decade as a club.

Atlanta wasn't named as one of the host cities when the United States last hosted the World Cup back in 1994, making this summer a landmark moment for the city. For local football fans, this isn't just a chance to see some of the world's best players playing on home soil; it's an opportunity to cement Atlanta as a major player in the American soccer landscape and inspire the next generation of homegrown talent.
