Going to North America '26: tickets, accommodations, etc. (non-politics)

I'm also interested about street parking in that part of Houston. There is a dedicated app (ParkHouston app), but it's not available for non-US Google accounts (same story with ParkMobile app). Anyway, I used StreetView to have an idea about that area, but I can't say that I find a solution. It's Texas, I really don't want to park (by mistake) on someone's property

 

There is no such thing in Houston. You can either park & ride at the Fannin South Transit Center, although I don't know how much they will charge you. I would take the Metro and leave the car somewhere along the red line route where street parking is permitted.

 

Try Way.com

 

Here, there is an alternative for Houston Parking https://www.ridemetro.org/world-cup

 

For Houson, one option would be to park in a garage in the Texas Medical Center. Last I heard it is about 10-15 dollars per day and take the Metro train to the stadium, a distance of about 2.5 miles.

 

Actually, I believe you can park at the Hermann Park Lot that is free, and walk till the Museum District station.

 

Not to get too political but the Presidential administration has made it easier for fans from Algeria, Cape Verde, Ivory Coast, Senegal and Tunisia. They will not have to pay a Visa bond to travel to the USA as long as they have purchased tickets.

 

That's a good decision and nice to see!

US Soccer sent Presidents Circle members opportunity to buy tix to some non-US games. I just got this today. If anyone wants me to look at any prices let me know:

I just grabbed 4 (max) for the Netherland/Tunisia game, Cat 3 at $190 each.

Match 16 (Belgium vs Egypt) (Group G)
Match 15 (Iran vs New Zealand) (Group G)
Match 20 (Austria vs Jordan) (Group J)
Match 26 (Switzerland vs Bosnia-Herzegovina) (Group B)
Match 31 (Paraguay vs Turkiye) (Group D)
Match 39 (Belgium vs Iran) (Group G)
Match 44 (Jordan vs Algeria) (Group J)

Match 45 (England vs Ghana) (Group L)
Match 60 (Paraguay vs Australia) (Group D)

Match 69 (Algeria vs Austria) (Group J)
Match 73 (2A vs 2B)
Match 74 (1E vs 3A/B/C/D/F)
Match 78 (2E vs 2I)
Match 80 (1L vs 3E/H/I/J/K)
Match 81 (1D vs 3B/E/F/I/J)
Match 84 (1H vs 2J)

 

surprised to see England there…i take that game is also selling poorly

 

Glad you asked...
For Kansas City:
1) pay for parking, $125 and enjoy the tailgating
2) pay for the shuttle $15pp
3) take uber

or...

4) your free parking/walking options (and I've done this before, no worries): it's a 30 minute walk but pretty easy and free. Circled in red at the top are 3-4 places to eat/drink/park:

- Score's Sports Bar: no frills sports bar, super local/dive but decent food and cold beer
- Dixon's Chili: aw man, this place is classic. Old time chili counter place. Super classic.
- Hi Boy: the old school version of this great famous hamburger stand.
- Carmen's Cantina: family run mexican place, cold beers on tap

All are on the same intersection, just park there and act normal.

 

For that, looks like single seats, Cat 1 for $726.

 

Cat3 for Belgium v Egypt??
I'm after 3. Will be in Seattle that week for Aus v US.

 

Up to 4 tix for Cat 1 and Cat 2, and can get up to 2 together for Cat 3 (and then another single)

 

Thank you!

 

Very helpful, thanks!

 

You're right, I just looked it up. Thanks for the tip!

 

Please keep us updated as the tournament goes along.
I am concerned that the KC restaurants might not allow us to park there once they figure out people in soccer jerseys are trying to walk inconspicuously away from the restaurant area.

 

Won't be an issue (be positive!). Especially if you have a beer/food before and/or after, they'd love the business.

 

What about the late games? If a match goes into Penalties it could be close to midnight when these inconspicuous people walk back to the parking lot area.

 

Bro. stop.

If that concerned:
1) pay for parking, $125 and enjoy the tailgating
2) pay for the shuttle $15pp
3) take uber

 

I am trying to evaluate the risk assessment here. But thanks for the tips again.

 

I hear ya. FWIW... Score's pub is open until 1:30am.

And I'm not saying there's a guarantee that nothing bad will happen, just saying its what people do for Chiefs games.

 

It's only $20 bus ride now
