About the stadium
Opened in 1972 and home to the Kansas City Chiefs, Arrowhead is among the most intimidating venues in American sport: in 2014 its crowd set a Guinness World Record of 142.2 decibels. A 2010 renovation modernised the bowl while keeping its wall of sound.
It staged Copa América 2024 fixtures and brings that ferocious atmosphere to the World Cup’s knockout rounds in 2026.
