The 2026 FIFA World Cup will be jointly hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico, marking the first time the tournament is held across three nations. The event will feature an expanded format, including more teams and matches than previous editions, offering Sri Lankan fans increased opportunities to engage with global football.
Despite the time zone differences between Sri Lanka and the host countries, fans are expected to have multiple viewing options through live broadcasts and digital streaming platforms. The expanded tournament structure will likely result in a broader range of fixtures, enhancing accessibility for audiences in South Asia.
