FAQ

Why does this page ask for a host-region UTC offset instead of one host city list?

The 2026 tournament spans multiple North American time zones. The offset input keeps the worksheet editable even when a viewer is converting fixtures from different host regions.

Does this page include the full FIFA fixture list?

No. It is a conversion worksheet. Use the official FIFA match schedule for the actual fixture list, then use this page to convert the kickoff into local viewer time.

Can I use this for Beijing time specifically?

Yes. The default viewer offset is UTC+8, which matches China Standard Time for Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and other mainland China cities.
