FIFA will introduce its Club World Cup tournament this summer, bringing 32 of the world’s leading teams to the US for the first time — including right here in Orlando.

Kicking off on Saturday, June 14 + running through Sunday, July 13, this new competition will feature all six of the international confederations: AFC, CAF, Concacaf, CONMEBOL, OFC, and UEFA.

The format will include eight groups of four teams competing in single-game round-robin matches. The top two teams from each group will advance to a round of 16, with a single-match knockout to the final. There won’t be a third place playoff.

To help you score the most fun during the FIFA Club World Cup, we’re breaking down the schedule by stadium.
