About the 2026 World Cup Official Highlights
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is the first ever co-hosted across three nations — Canada, the United States and Mexico. Vancouver’s BC Place and Toronto’s BMO Field are among the key venues, expected to host some of the most memorable moments of the tournament. This page collects all official public highlights so you can relive every great moment.
FIFA releases highlights on the official FIFA YouTube channel (youtube.com/FIFA), typically 6–12 hours after the final whistle. Goal clips appear even faster — usually within 1–2 hours. Full-length highlight reels run 5–8 minutes for group games and 10+ minutes for knockout rounds.
? Tip: FIFA YouTube highlights are available globally without region restrictions. If you’re attending matches in Canada and want to catch up later, grab an eSIM card before you leave so you have instant connectivity at the stadium.
