The Complete Guide to the 2026 FIFA World Cup
Everything you need to know about the 2026 World Cup: the historic 48-team tournament, Morocco's Atlas Lions, how to organise a watch party and enjoy every match with your community on Liqae.
The biggest World Cup in history
The 2026 FIFA World Cup will be one of the largest sporting competitions ever held. For the first time in the tournament's history, it will take place across three countries: the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
This edition is historic in another way too: 48 national teams will compete, delivering more matches, more drama, and more opportunities for fans around the world to experience the game they love.
For football fans in Morocco and beyond, the 2026 World Cup means far more than a sporting competition. It is a rare opportunity to come together, share unforgettable moments, and rally behind a favourite team.
Morocco and the 2026 World Cup
Following their remarkable run at the 2022 World Cup, the Moroccan national team has captured the hearts of fans across the country and the Arab world.
Every match of the Atlas Lions will be watched with intensity — in cafés, living rooms, public squares, and community events held throughout Morocco.
The 2026 World Cup also marks a significant milestone on the road to 2030, when Morocco will co-host the tournament alongside Spain and Portugal.
Why experience the World Cup together?
Watching a match on your own is enjoyable. Watching it alongside fellow fans is something else entirely.
Sharing the tension of a near miss, debating a controversial decision, celebrating a goal together, or supporting your team through a difficult moment creates a bond that is hard to replicate.
The World Cup brings families, friends, neighbours, colleagues — and sometimes complete strangers — closer together.
Organising a Watch Party
A Watch Party is a gathering of supporters who come together to watch a match in the same place. You can organise one:

- With neighbours or friends
A few practical tips:
