Hotels & Stays for World Cup 2026 Dallas
Where to stay for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. AT&T Stadium is in Arlington, but the DFW metro has many hotel zones to choose from depending on your priorities.
Specific hotel listings coming soon
We’re confirming partnerships with North Texas hotels before publishing specific recommendations. In the meantime, the zone guide below covers your best options.
Arlington (Closest to Stadium)
Arlington has the highest concentration of hotels within walking or short-drive distance of AT&T Stadium. The Entertainment District along TX-360 (Six Flags area) and the downtown Arlington corridor both have solid mid-range and upscale options. Book as early as possible — match-day inventory will sell out well before June 2026.
Pro tip: look for hotels along E Lamar Blvd and the Ballpark Way corridor — they're within 1–2 miles of the stadium.
Irving / Las Colinas (DFW Airport area)
If you're flying into DFW, Las Colinas and Irving have a large selection of business hotels that offer a good price-to-proximity balance. It's a 25–30-minute drive to AT&T Stadium without traffic. The Irving Music Factory entertainment district gives you dining options after settling in.
Pro tip: Las Colinas hotels tend to be less price-gouged during major events than Arlington hotels — worth comparing rates.
Downtown Dallas (Upscale / Urban)
Downtown Dallas has premium hotel options and puts you in the city for nightlife and dining after matches. It's about 30–35 minutes to AT&T Stadium. If you're splitting time between attending matches and experiencing Dallas, downtown is the right base.
Pro tip: Uber/Lyft surge pricing to and from the stadium on match days will be significant. Factor that into your stay decision.
Frisco / Plano / Richardson (North Dallas Suburbs)
North Dallas suburbs are a solid choice if you have a car and want more space, lower nightly rates, and access to the international restaurant scenes in those communities. Frisco puts you close to The Star and any Sweden-related training activity.
Pro tip: Frisco and Plano have extended-stay and suite-style options that work well for multi-night trips.
Booking Advice for World Cup 2026
- →Book now. World Cup match inventory disappears months in advance. Arlington hotels within 2 miles of AT&T Stadium will be the first to sell out.
- →Check cancellation policies. Kickoff times for many matches are still TBD — book refundable rates where possible until the schedule is confirmed.
- →Consider Airbnb. Whole-home rentals in Arlington, Grand Prairie, and Mansfield can be more economical for groups attending multiple matches.
- →Watch for FIFA fan zones. Official FIFA Fan Fest locations have not been announced for Dallas as of early 2026 — follow FIFA’s official channels for updates.
