Location & getting there

MetLife Stadium is located in Meadowlands Sports Complex, East Rutherford (Bergen County, New Jersey) , around 8 km from the city centre. The nearest airport is Newark Liberty International (EWR), approx. 18 km to the south; LaGuardia (LGA) approx. 25 km to the east. Public transit: NJ Transit Meadowlands Rail line from Secaucus Junction (connecting from Penn Station NYC and Hoboken); additional event buses from Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan..

Network situation at the venue

As the designated World Cup final stadium, MetLife Stadium runs one of the largest DAS installations in the USA. In 2024–2025 Verizon installed around 2,400 new antennas over six million feet of fibre, with 5G Ultra Wideband on C-band and mmWave hotspots at the gates, stands and clubs. The DAS is designed as a neutral-host system and also carries AT&T and T-Mobile. T-Mobile shows especially strong mid-band 5G in the area, as East Rutherford sits right on the New Jersey Turnpike with dense macro coverage. AT&T FirstNet is wired in separately for first responders. Outside the stadium, coverage extends seamlessly to Manhattan — the location 8 km west of the Hudson means extremely dense carrier presence from all three US networks.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about MetLife Stadium

Will my phone get a signal inside MetLife Stadium for the 2026 World Cup final?

Very likely yes. The World Cup final is at the freshly upgraded MetLife Stadium, which runs a multi-carrier DAS with around 2,400 antennas for Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile. A travel eSIM for the USA (Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Ubigi) typically roams on T-Mobile US or AT&T — both are on the DAS with 5G. With around 82,500 spectators, a plan with a larger data allowance is worth it, since push notifications, WhatsApp videos and live streams all create load at once. If you want to stream the final from the USA, budget at least 5–10 GB of free data before kick-off.
