US Bank Stadium

US Bank Stadium is a domed NFL stadium in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota, home of the Minnesota Vikings. It hosts four group-stage matches in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The stadium sits in a city that is absent from every published host-committee human rights plan and that France's official travel advisory explicitly warned citizens to avoid — the first such advisory to name a 2026 World Cup host city.

Minneapolis's designation as a World Cup host despite its status as a sanctuary city and the site of two civilian deaths during Operation Metro Surge (January 2026) makes US Bank Stadium a focal point for the tournament's safety and immigration controversy. Human Rights Watch identified Minneapolis as one of twelve deficient host cities with no published human rights plan, with an 11 May 2026 Deadline for action.
