Egypt begin their 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign with a demanding Group G opener against Belgium at Seattle Stadium, commercially known as Lumen Field.
The match kicks off at 10:00 PM Cairo time and midday in Seattle, making it an early test for the Pharaohs against one of the strongest sides in the group.
The venue opened in 2002 in downtown Seattle, Washington, and is best known as the home of the Seattle Seahawks in American football and Seattle Sounders in Major League Soccer.
Its regular capacity is around 67,000, with room for expansion at major events, while its open-air design and partial roof help create a powerful crowd atmosphere.
Seattle supporters are widely associated with high noise levels, so the stadium environment could become a major feature of Egypt's first World Cup test against Belgium.
