Those wondering where to watch the 2026 World Cup final in Palma now have their main confirmed venue. Palma City Council will once again install a giant screen at Son Fusteret for the Spain v Argentina match, which will take place on Sunday 19 July at 9:00 pm. Following the success of the semi-final, the venue will increase its capacity to 20,000 people and reinforce both access and public transport services.

In addition to Son Fusteret, the final can also be watched at other venues across the city, including the Porto Pi Fan Zone and Ocimax Palma, which will show the match with different activities and viewing options.

Son Fusteret doubles its capacity for the World Cup final

The main change compared with the semi-final will be the increase in capacity. After 9,800 supporters filled Son Fusteret to cheer on Spain against France, the City Council has decided to expand the venue’s capacity to 20,000 people, allowing more fans to watch the final on the giant screen.

The gates will open at 6:00 pm, three hours before kick-off, and admission will once again be free.

As during the semi-final, the build-up will feature music from DJ Jaume Colombás. The venue will also have a new layout, a relocated rest and shaded area, additional services and three entrances to make access easier for the public.
