Searches are up 1000%<sup>1<\/sup>, driven by soccer-mad English and Scottish fans &#8211; making up 65%<sup>2<\/sup> of all Boston searches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dallas is trending up 900%<sup>1<\/sup>. The Texan city will host soccer powerhouses England and Argentina, yet searches are being driven by Japanese fans, who will have two games in Dallas &#8211; they account for almost a third of travel searches.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New York ranks as the second most popular city, proving an accessible hub for traveling international fans. Lodging searches are up 120%<sup>1<\/sup>, with global flight searches up 165%<sup>3<\/sup>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Miami ranks third in the most popular host city list (+260%<sup>1<\/sup>), with Brazil vs Scotland drawing the biggest initial interest. Searches by the Scots account for almost half<sup>2<\/sup> of searches made for Miami post-draw.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>San Francisco trails both the rankings, with only a 10%<sup>1<\/sup> increase in interest, despite hosting five group stage matches. This is likely due to teams with smaller fan bases playing in the Bay, who need to travel further to watch their teams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2483\" height=\"2267\" data-id=\"63016\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-63016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations.png 2483w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations-300x274.png 300w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations-1024x935.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations-768x701.png 768w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations-1536x1402.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations-2048x1870.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Trending-Soccer-Destinations-1568x1432.png 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2483px) 100vw, 2483px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2300\" height=\"2267\" data-id=\"63013\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-63013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations.png 2300w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations-300x296.png 300w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations-1024x1009.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations-768x757.png 768w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations-1536x1514.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations-2048x2019.png 2048w, https:\/\/www.expedia.com\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Fan-Travel-Outlook_Popular-Soccer-Destinations-1568x1546.png 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2300px) 100vw, 2300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Hardcore Fans Heading to North America<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are 48 nations taking part in next summer\u2019s major soccer event, and Colombia fans are proving the most dedicated of them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Colombian <\/strong>fans take top spot in the most dedicated fan ranking, with travel searches up 305%<sup>4<\/sup> &#8211; more than any other nation.

To make your budget stretch further, consider flying into a city that is a couple of hours away, and travel to the game from there. For example, fly into Burbank or San Diego instead of Los Angeles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bundle<\/strong><sup>6 <\/sup><strong>and save more on packages:<\/strong> Flights, hotels, car hire and activities \u2013 all in one place. Book them together on Expedia to save hundreds on average. Bonus: your full itinerary is stored in one place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Road Trip Pairings<\/strong>: If taking in multiple games, consider renting a car to drive between the host cities, some are closer than you think. New York to Philadelphia is less than two hours, Houston to Dallas is less than four hours. Car rental is available on Expedia from $35<sup>7<\/sup> per day, including taxes and fees.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>90-Minute Vacation Rentals:<\/strong> Along with hotels, also consider vacation rentals.
