The tournament is underway, and Verizon Business is powering the play. Whether you are at the stadium or managing your business, our reliable internet connectivity provides unmatched access to the FIFA World Cup 2026TM .
Know what it takes to stay connected with these 6 network essentials which will help to keep you closer to the action.
5G ultra wideband for massive capacity
Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband uses spectrum that can provide massive capacity in crowded areas. This means thousands of fans can stream, share, and post seamlessly. Verizon's ongoing rapid 5G Ultra Wideband expansion includes deploying new C-band equipment on macro cell towers. This massive expansion also involves deploying the new small cells, enhancing both access to and the capacity of 5G using C-band spectrum.
Low latency for a more responsive experience
5G can significantly reduce lag in the wireless transmission between your device and the cell tower. For a fan, this minimizes delay, keeping your digital stats and streams as close to the live pitch action as possible.
Strong upload speeds for content sharing
Sharing high-quality 4K videos of a goal requires a strong network to send large files fast. With Verizon’s 5G network your videos can reach social media quickly, even in high-traffic environments*.
*Disclaimer: Up to 4K video when inside 5G Ultra Wideband coverage areas with a 5G capable device.
Faster 5G speeds for better mobile experiences
Verizon’s 5G can handle high-traffic events by providing the speed and reliability needed to run complex apps and stay connected when everyone else is online.
Right-sized speed from every host stadium
Whether you are a small concession or the stadium operations, Verizon helps you match your bandwidth to your specific needs, so Internet connectivity never gets a yellow card. Faster processing speeds and broader bandwidth for both uploading and downloading can reduce delays in data sharing, improving productivity across systems and interactions.
Seamless operations and immersive fan experiences
Verizon's Private 5G Network provides an invisible backbone for stadium operations, coaches, and in-game experiences. This dedicated deployment can support pitch-side coaching staff reviews and field photographers, and can power on-field referee body cameras to stream key game moments to 5G capable devices, as they happen, to fans around the world for an immersive fan experience.
