Bay FC × 2026 Summer’s Global Soccer Event
The World Comes to the Bay
For the first time in 32 years, the 2026 Summer’s Global Soccer Event is back in the United States, and the Bay Area is right in the middle of it. Six matches are scheduled at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium (Levi’s® Stadium) in Santa Clara, running from June 13 through a Round of 32 knockout fixture on July 1.
As the Bay Area prepares to welcome the 2026 Summer’s Global Soccer Event, Bay FC will remain actively engaged throughout the Bay Area region. Bay FC’s Pride Match against Chicago Stars FC on May 24 marks the club’s final home match until Saturday, July 18 against North Carolina Courage.
Throughout the summer break, Bay FC will bring fans together through viewing locations, neighborhood events, and local activations across the region, as the club continues to connect with the community and celebrate the game at every level.
NWSL matches pause in June — but the action doesn’t stop there. Stay connected to Bay FC throughout the break.
