Frequently asked questions
Does this World Cup 2026 schedule show local match times?
Yes. The tool converts every match from the official UTC time into the timezone selected in the schedule controls. It detects your browser timezone by default, but you can switch to common zones such as New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City, London, Paris, Tokyo or Sydney. This is useful when you are comparing host-city times with your own viewing schedule, especially for matches played across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Can I add World Cup matches to my calendar?
Yes. You can download an .ics calendar file for a single match or for the currently filtered schedule. The calendar file is generated directly in your browser, so the selected filters and match list are not uploaded to a server. That makes it easy to build a personal viewing calendar without subscribing to a third-party feed or sharing which teams you are following.
Is this the official FIFA schedule?
The match dates, UTC kick-off times, groups, venues and cities are based on FIFA's public 2026 World Cup schedule data. PureTools is not affiliated with FIFA, so fans should verify late changes on FIFA's official schedule page before booking travel or tickets. The tool is designed for planning and filtering convenience, not as a ticketing source or final authority for travel decisions.
Does the schedule work offline?
Yes. The schedule data is stored locally in the page and the service worker caches the tool files. Once the page has loaded, you can filter matches, convert times and generate calendar files without calling an external API. If you open it before traveling, the cached page can still help you check fixtures, venues and converted times when mobile coverage is unreliable.
What is the best way to use this during the tournament?
Filter by your team, local date or stage, then download a calendar file for the matches you care about. You can also export a compact PNG schedule for watch parties, group chats or social posts, and open the bracket predictor when you want to simulate knockout paths. Because filters and exports happen locally, you can quickly make different schedules for family, friends or watch parties without creating an account.
Can I filter the schedule by city or stadium?
Yes. Use the City dropdown to show only matches played in a specific host city, useful for planning in-person attendance or focusing on games in your region. You can combine the city filter with other filters such as Stage or Date to narrow the list further. Both the Download .ics calendar export and the Download PNG image export respect all active filters, so the file you generate contains only the matches currently visible in the schedule.
How do I export only my team's matches to my calendar?
Select your country in the Team dropdown and the schedule instantly shows only their fixtures, from the group stage through every knockout round they appear in as picks are made. Click Download .ics to generate a calendar file containing only those matches. Import the file into Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook. Each event stores the match time in UTC with the timezone label you selected, so it appears at the correct local time on your calendar without manual adjustment.
