SAN FRANCISCO—Fox’s free streaming service Tubi has launched the 2026 FIFA World Cup Fox Hub as a destination for fans and unveiled plans to simulcast live in 4K the FIFA World Cup 2026 opening ceremonies and two matches: Mexico vs. South Africa on Thursday, June 11, and U.S. Men’s National Team (USMNT) vs. Paraguay on Friday, June 12.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup Fox Hub on Tubi is free, requires no subscription and is available across connected televisions, mobile devices and web now and throughout the tournament.
“Nearly a century ago, the World Cup was born out of a desire to bring the world together through sport,” said Deirdre Hesseldieck, senior vice president of product at Tubi. “That mission has never been more relevant, and technology has never been better positioned to extend it. The FIFA World Cup Fox Hub is Tubi’s contribution to that legacy: a free destination designed for a seamless fan experience, where viewers can easily navigate from live coverage and highlights to creator commentary, player interviews, and expert predictions. We built it so fans never lose the thread.”
