The Venue: Gillette Stadium

Gillette Stadium is located in Foxborough, Massachusetts, part of the greater Boston metropolitan area. It is one of the most well-known sporting venues on the East Coast of the United States.

The stadium is the permanent home of the New England Patriots NFL franchise, who have won the Super Bowl on six occasions. It also serves as home to the New England Revolution in Major League Soccer.

In the autumn of 2023, Gillette Stadium completed a £250 million renovation, which included the country's largest outdoor curved video board, a new entrance canopy, and a 22-storey lighthouse tower with a 360-degree observation deck.

Travel Tips for UK fans

Making the trip from the UK to Boston for Norway vs France takes some planning, but it is well worth the effort. Here is what to know before you go.

Getting there

The main airport used by Gillette Stadium attendees is Boston Logan International Airport. Many airlines operate flights from the UK to Boston, with flight times of around eight to nine hours.

Boston runs five hours behind the UK, so factor in the time difference when planning your schedule around the match. Book as early as possible, demand around World Cup fixtures is high, and prices will climb as the date approaches.

Getting to the stadium

Gillette Stadium is 27 miles from Downtown Boston. Options for getting there include:

MBTA Commuter Rail: Event-day special trains run from Boston South Station and Providence directly to Foxboro Station at the stadium. This is the most reliable and straightforward option on matchday.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate in the area, though the Uber and Lyft pickup zone is far from the stadium, expect a 30 to 60 minute wait plus surge pricing on matchdays.

Driving: Route 1 is the only road in and out of the stadium by car and becomes heavily congested two to three hours before and after events. Arriving early is strongly advisable.

Where to stay

Boston has a range of accommodation to suit most budgets. The city centre and surrounding areas offer plenty of options, but demand for World Cup dates is high. Book as early as possible to secure the best availability at the best prices. Weather

June in Boston is generally warm and pleasant, though temperatures can vary. Unlike Miami, the climate is milder and more manageable. Pack a light layer for the evening and be prepared for the occasional shower. Gillette Stadium is an open-air venue, so there is no canopy protection.

Visa and entry requirements

UK citizens travelling to the United States need to apply for an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorisation) before departure, unless they already hold a valid US visa. Apply well in advance of your travel date to avoid any last-minute complications.

Matchday kick-off time for UK fans

Norway vs France kicks off at 3:00 pm local time on 26 June 2026. That is 8:00 pm BST for fans following from back home in the UK.
