World Cup 2026 Gold Medal — The Commemorative Collectible Explained
The World Cup 2026 medal is a commemorative collectible that marks football's biggest-ever tournament — 48 teams, 104 matches, three host nations. It's a piece of football memorabilia for fans and collectors, not official licensed merchandise: solid metal, ribbon included, ready to display. Here's what it marks, who it's for, and how to get one.
What the World Cup 2026 medal marks
The 2026 World Cup runs from June 11 to July 19, 2026, across the United States, Canada and Mexico. It's the first 48-team World Cup, with 104 matches over 16 host cities — the largest edition in the tournament's history. The final is set for July 19 in the New York / New Jersey area.
