2024 Copa America stadiums: Our venue guide including where USMNT will play

This summer marks a special edition of Copa America, with the tournament expanded to 16 teams and hosted in the United States for the second time.

As part of a strategic partnership between the CONMEBOL and CONCACAF governing bodies announced in January 2023, six North American nations were allowed to qualify for South America's major international tournament.

Joining the usual suspects like Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay are CONCACAF qualifiers United States, Mexico, Canada, Costa Rica, Jamaica, and Panama.

The United States is hosting just as they did in 2016, winning the right against Peru after Ecuador pulled out of the running. With the 2026 World Cup fast approaching, Copa America will provide a good test of US facilities, not to mention pitting the USMNT against some elite competition.

Here's a rundown of the 14 stadiums that will host the 2024 Copa America.

1. AT&T Stadium

City: Arlington, Texas
Capacity: 80,000

Games Hosted

21 June - Peru vs Chile
23 June - United States vs Bolivia
05 July - Quarterfinal

The second-biggest venue of the tournament, AT&T Stadium has been no stranger to international soccer events, most recently playing host to the CONCACAF Nations League Finals, which the USMNT won by beating Mexico 2-0 in the final.

A favorite of US fans, the Stars and Stripes will play Bolivia here in the group stages.

2. Mercedes-Benz Stadium

City: Atlanta, Georgia
Capacity: 71,000

Games hosted

20 June - Argentina vs Canada
27 June - Panama vs United States

One of the most visually striking stadiums in the United States, Mercedes-Benz Stadium will only host two Copa America matches, but they're significant ones.

First up is the opening game between holders Argentina and CONCACAF rising stars Canada where the likes of Alphonso Davies and Jonathan David will be pitted against the GOAT and Inter Miami's very own Lionel Messi.

Then, a week later, the USMNT comes to town in an all-CONCACAF showdown with Panama.

Atlanta United usually plays on turf at MBS, but it's been confirmed that grass will be laid down for Copa America and the 2026 World Cup.

3. Q2 Stadium

City: Austin, Texas
Capacity: 20,738

Games hosted

30 June - Jamaica vs Venezuela
2 July - Costa Rica vs Paraguay

The home of Austin FC, Q2 Stadium is one of the smallest stadiums to host Copa America this summer with a capacity of just under 20,738. However, fans of Major League Soccer's third Texan team can vouch for the amazing atmosphere the venue can create.

4. Bank of America Stadium

City: Charlotte, North Carolina
Capacity: 74,867

Games hosted

10 July - Semi-final
13 July - Third-place playoff

The home of the Carolina Panthers, Bank of America Stadium has really embraced soccer since Charlotte FC arrived in MLS in 2022, even breaking the single-match attendance record in their inaugural home match against the LA Galaxy -- since slipping to second.

'The Bank' doesn't come into the tournament until July 10, when it hosts a semifinal, while the third-place playoff match will also be played here.

5. MetLife Stadium

City: New Jersey, New York
Capacity: 82,566

Games hosted

25 June - Chile vs Argentina
27 June - Uruguay vs Bolivia
9 July - Semi-final

The largest stadium at this summer's tournament, MetLife Stadium is slated to host the final of the 2026 World Cup and was used for the 2016 Copa America final.

This time, it'll witness two group games and a semifinal, the first of which is 2016 winners Chile against holders Argentina. Messi scored a hattrick at MetLife in a friendly against Brazil back in 2012.

6. NRG Stadium

City: Houston, Texas
Capacity: 72,220

Games hosted

22 June - Mexico vs Jamaica
24 June - Colombia vs Paraguay
4 July - Quarter-final

The third of Texas' host venues, NRG Stadium is sure to be packed out when Mexico and Jamaica come to town in the group stages.

Home of the Houston Texans, NRG hosted two 2016 Copa America matches and has become a bit of a second home for El Tri, who have lost just one of their 19 all-time matches here.

7. SoFi Stadium

City: Inglewood, California
Capacity: 70,240

Games hosted

24 June - Brazil vs Costa Rica
26 June - Venezuela vs Mexico

SoFi Stadium has drawn crowds of over 70,000 for soccer events in the past, including Mexico's 1-0 win over Panama in the 2023 CONCACAF Gold Cup final, just 10 days before Arsenal defeated Barcelona there 5-3 in a friendly.

We're expecting another good turnout when Brazil rolls up in the group stages.

8. Levi's Stadium

City: Santa Clara, California
Capacity: 68,500

Games hosted

22 June - Ecuador vs Venezuela
2 July - Brazil vs Colombia

The slightly smaller of California's two host venues, Levi's Stadium has a rich soccer history, including hosting the USMNT's 2-0 defeat against Colombia to open the 2016 Copa America, as well as a famous 7-0 victory for eventual winners Chile against Mexico in the quarterfinals.

Like SoFi, Levi's also has the honor of hosting Brazil as they face Colombia on July 2.

9. State Farm Stadium

City: Glendale, Arizona
Capacity: 63,400

Games hosted

28 June - Colombia vs Costa Rica
30 June - Mexico vs Ecuador
6 July - Quarterfinal

State Farm Stadium hosted four Copa America matches in 2016, including the USMNT's 1-0 loss to Colombia. This time, it will see three games, including Mexico and Ecuador's group clash and a quarterfinal.

10. Allegiant Stadium

City: Las Vegas, Nevada
Capacity: 61,000

Games hosted

26 June - Ecuador vs Jamaica
28 June - Paraguay vs Brazil
6 July - Quarterfinal

With retractable windows and a 275-foot media screen, Allegiant Stadium is the very definition of state-of-the-art. In the past, it has witnessed the United States beating Mexico in the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup final and Spanish arch-rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid meet in a friendly, among other soccer showdowns.

After two group games -- including Brazil taking on Paraguay -- Allegiant will host the third quarterfinal match.

11. Arrowhead Stadium

City: Kansas City, Missouri
Capacity: 76,416

Games hosted

1 July - United States vs Uruguay

Arrowhead Stadium is slated to host six 2026 World Cup matches following a $50m renovation, but will see just one match this summer. Of course, that will be the small matter of the USMNT going up against Uruguay -- the joint most successful nation in tournament history.

The stadium will have a good warm-up when Messi and Inter Miami take on Sporting Kansas City in an MLS showdown in April.

12. Children's Mercy Park

City: Kansas City, Kansas
Capacity: 18,467

Games hosted

25 June - Peru vs Canada

Same city, different state. Sporting KC's Children's Mercy Park is the smallest stadium at this summer's Copa America but has an atmosphere that packs a serious punch. It's also a stadium with plenty of international experience having hosted CONCACAF Gold Cup, World Cup qualifying and friendly matches in the past.

There's just one match here this time, but it'll feature plenty of familiar names as Canada take on Peru.

13. Hard Rock Stadium

City: Miami Gardens, Florida
Capacity: 64,767

Games hosted

23 June - Uruguay vs Panama
29 June - Argentina vs Peru
14 July - Final

The pink jerseys will be out in force when Messi and his Argentina teammates take on Peru in Miami on June 29. The same may be the case when the final is hosted here on July 14, with it important to note that both the USMNT and Brazil are on the opposite side of the draw to Messi's Argentina.

Hard Rock is one of the most soccer-friendly stadiums in the United States having hosted some of the biggest names in the world at both club and international levels in the past. That includes the likes of Liverpool vs Manchester United and Barcelona vs Real Madrid, as well as Messi scoring twice in Argentina's 3-0 friendly win over Honduras in September 2022.

14. Inter&Co Stadium

City: Orlando, Florida
Capacity: 25,500

Games hosted

29 June - Canada vs Chile
1 July - Bolivia vs Panama

A three-hour trip north of Hard Rock Stadium is Inter&Co Stadium, the home of Orlando City SC.

Inter&Co Stadium -- formerly known as Exploria Stadium -- will host two group matches, including Canada vs Chile, and has been a regular venue for CONCACAF Gold Cup and World Cup qualifying matches over the years.

It is the fifth-largest soccer-specific stadium currently in use in MLS.

What stadiums will the USMNT play at during 2024 Copa America?

The USMNT has been drawn into a difficult group alongside Uruguay, Panama, and Bolivia, with Gregg Berhalter's side visiting three different cities along the way.

Starting off, it's Bolivia at AT&T Stadium, where they recently lifted their third consecutive CONCACAF Nations League title. Then it's Panama at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, wrapping up with the tough matchup against Uruguay at Arrowhead Stadium.

It will be competitive at the top of Group C between the United States and Uruguay, so it's unclear where the knockout games will be played.

If the Stars and Stripes top the group, they'll head to Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas in the quarterfinals before moving on to a semifinal at Charlotte's Bank of America Stadium. The final will be at Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, regardless.

And if it's a second-place finish, the quarter-finals will be at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, with the semi-finals and finals following the same journey.
