How to Add the World Cup 2026 Schedule to Apple Calendar

Apple Calendar can open World Cup 2026 .ics files on Mac, iPhone, and iPad, making it easy to keep fixtures alongside your daily schedule.

Match Time Calendar is an independent fan-made utility and is not affiliated with FIFA, the World Cup, teams, broadcasters, or tournament organizers.

Start with the calendar file

Download a full or filtered World Cup 2026 .ics file, then import it into your calendar app.

Step 1
Download an .ics fixture file
Use the calendar download page to export all 104 matches or only the filtered matches you want to follow.
Step 2
Open the file on your Apple device
On Mac, double-click the .ics file or use File > Import in Calendar. On iPhone or iPad, open the downloaded file and choose Calendar.
Step 3
Select the destination calendar
Choose an existing calendar or create a dedicated World Cup calendar so fixtures are easy to hide or remove later.
Step 4
Review timezone display
Apple Calendar shows events using your device and calendar settings. Check one or two matches against the schedule page after import.
Step 5
Re-import if schedule details change
Because .ics downloads are snapshots, download a new file if kickoff times or match details are updated.

View every match first if you want to filter by team, host city, stage, or date before downloading.
