How to Add World Cup 2026 to Google Calendar (ICS Import)

The easiest way to never miss a kickoff is to import World Cup 2026 into Google Calendar (or Apple/Outlook) with a single ICS file.

Our download hub generates calendar files from live schedule data — same source as the full schedule and knockout bracket.

Step-by-Step: Google Calendar

1. Go to download on World Cup 2026 Schedule
2. Select your timezone (UK, US Eastern, India IST, etc.)
3. Optionally pick teams to include only those fixtures
4. Click Download ICS
5. In Google Calendar: Settings → Import & export → Import → upload the .ics file

Each match becomes an event with correct local kickoff time.

Apple Calendar & Outlook

• Apple (Mac/iPhone): Double-click the ICS file or use File → Import in Calendar
• Outlook: File → Open & Export → Import/Export → import iCalendar

Update Knockout Opponents

Early ICS exports may show placeholder team names for third-placed slots. Re-download after the group stage or before each knockout round for updated opponents — or keep the full tournament file and edit events manually.

Also available: PDF printable schedule.
