About AT&T Stadium
AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas β home of the Dallas Cowboys and universally known as "Jerry World" β brings a distinctly Texan grandeur to the FIFA World Cup 2026. Opened in 2009 and situated between Dallas and Fort Worth in the DallasβFort Worth metroplex, the stadium seats approximately 80,000 fans and features a fully retractable roof, ensuring matches can proceed regardless of Texas weather β including the intense summer heat and occasional thunderstorms that characterise North Texas in June. The stadium is famous for its architectural scale: it holds the world's record for the largest column-free interior and debuted the largest video screen in any sports venue when it opened. The DallasβFort Worth area is one of the fastest-growing metro regions in the USA and has a huge football fan base. For World Cup 2026, the stadium will host multiple group stage matches as well as knockout-round fixtures, drawing international fans to the heart of the American South. The city of Arlington is conveniently located between Dallas and Fort Worth, well-served by road though fans without a car are advised to use rideshare from nearby transit hubs.
Home of the Dallas Cowboys, nicknamed "Jerry World" for owner Jerry Jones who championed the stadium's design. Features the world's largest column-free interior and the largest HD video screen ever installed in a sports venue when it opened.
