Everything you need to know about NRG Stadium
The Netherlands vs Sweden World Cup match is being played at the NRG Stadium in Houston on June 20.
For the 2026 World Cup, the stadium will operate with a capacity of approximately 72,000 seats. Despite its expansive footprint, the architectural design features high-transparency glazing and open concourses that maintain a sense of intimacy and connection to the field, creating an electric atmosphere for the seven matches it will host, including a high-profile Round of 16 clash.
Located in Houston, Texas, it is the first NFL stadium of its kind to feature a retractable roof, a sophisticated design that allows for both indoor and outdoor events.
The roof is composed of two large translucent fabric panels that can open or close in as little as seven minutes, protecting spectators from the elements while allowing natural light to reach the pitch. The venue is world-renowned for its massive end-zone video boards, which are among the largest in professional sports, ensuring every fan has a crystal-clear view of the action.
