The TTC is ready to get fans to tonight's game
Ghana and Panama kick off their FIFA World Cup 2026™ campaign tonight, Wed., June 17 at the Toronto Stadium. The TTC is the most convenient and reliable way to get to the game, FIFA Fan FestivalTM, or other local events.
Additional service will be running on Line 1 Yonge-University and Line 2 Bloor-Danforth, along with several bus and streetcar routes. On June 17, subway service will run past the usual 1:30 a.m. end time to ensure fans have a safe and reliable way home.
Getting to Toronto Stadium and FIFA Fan FestivalTM
On match days, the Fleet Street Transit Hub will serve as the dedicated streetcar pick-up and drop-off point, as Exhibition Loop and road access to Exhibition Place will be closed. The Fleet Street Hub, between Fort York Boulevard and Strachan Avenue on Fleet Street, will give fans access to Toronto Stadium and the FIFA Fan Festival.
To get to Toronto Stadium, Fort York National Historic Site, and The Bentway, customers can take a:
- 509 Harbourfront streetcar from Union Station
- 511 Bathurst streetcar from Bathurst Station
- 29/929 bus from Dufferin Station to Dufferin Gate Loop
- 829 Dufferin Gate Express bus that will provide non-stop service between Dufferin Station and Dufferin Gate Loop on match days
Customers travelling on the 504 King streetcar can exit at King St. W. and Bathurst St. and transfer to a southbound 511 Bathurst streetcar to connect to Fleet Street Transit Hub.
Service on the 509 Harbourfront and 511 Bathurst routes has been increased to operate every five minutes, to accommodate increased travel on these routes during the FIFA World Cup 2026TM. Service on the 504 King route also operates every five minutes or better.
TTC Customer Service Ambassadors, who can be easily identified by red jerseys, will also be available at high-traffic locations to answer customer questions, provide directions, and offer on-the-spot support.
Due to fan marches travelling from Trinity Bellwoods Park and Stanley Park for tonight's FIFA World Cup 2026™ match, customers should expect detours and delays between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. on the 501 Queen, 504 King and 63 Ossington. Customers are encouraged to plan for extra travel time and explore alternate routes.
Planning your trip
Customers are encouraged to plan their trips using the TTC’s online trip planner, or Transit app. Through a partnership between the TTC and Transit app, step-by-step navigation is available for TTC stations on lines 1, 2, 4 and 6. At Bathurst, Dufferin, Union, Bloor-Yonge, King and St Andrew stations, these instructions align with new alpha-numeric exit identification signage, enabling customers to better route their journey to the best exit. As an added bonus this summer, Toronto transit users will gain access to Transit’s premium trip planning service, Royale, free of charge.
The TTC website also has a redesigned live service updates bar, which offers a more intuitive, centralized view of service alerts and advisories about planned and real-time impacts across the network.
Fans travelling through Bathurst Station to the match can also visit the TTC pop-up shop to purchase limited-edition TTC merchandise, which will only be available during the FIFA World Cup 2026™. TTC shop kiosks will be popping up at other stations throughout the tournament and TTC soccer-themed merchandise can also be purchased online.
