Canada will host 13 matches of the 2026 World Cup, divided between Toronto and Vancouver — including group stage matches and round of 16. If you are a Brazilian fan heading to Canada, this guide shows exactly how to have 4G/5G internet without falling into the roaming trap.

2 Canadian Host Cities

  • Toronto (BMO Field, expanding to 45,000 seats for the Cup)
  • Vancouver (BC Place — stadium with a retractable roof)

Coverage in Canada: Mature 5G Network

Canada has three main carriers — Rogers, Bell, and Telus — all with abundant 5G coverage in Toronto, Vancouver, and the routes between them. The eSIM Easy Chip for Canada uses these same networks, ensuring 5G coverage in both host cities.

Bonus: Niagara Falls is 1.5 hours from Toronto

Many fans take the opportunity to visit Niagara Falls. The eSIM works normally there (even though the US border is nearby — Canada remains Canada in the Canadian Niagara).

Plans for Different Types of Fans

Profile Plan Price
1 game + city tour (3-5 days) 3 GB / 30 days US$ 8.50
1 week with tours 5 GB / 30 days US$ 13
2-3 weeks (games + Niagara + Banff) 10 GB / 30 days US$ 23
Heavy usage or family 20 GB / 30 days US$ 37
No worries (unlimited) Unlimited / 30 days US$ 69

Specific Tips for Canada

  • English and French: Toronto is predominantly English-speaking; Quebec/Montreal are French-speaking. Vancouver speaks English. Google Translate works well but requires internet — another reason to have a reliable eSIM.
  • Distances: Toronto is 4,300 km from Vancouver — a domestic flight of ~5h. Keep the eSIM active at both airports.
  • Maple Leafs and Blue Jays: Toronto also has hockey and baseball — tickets sold by StubHub and Ticketmaster, which require SMS confirmation.
  • Vancouver and Whistler: many tourists combine Vancouver with the Whistler ski resort (2h drive). Full coverage in both.

Crossing the Border to the USA?

If you combine Canada + USA on the same trip (very common for those attending a game in Toronto and then heading to New York), the North America Regional eSIM is the best option: one plan, no need to swap SIM cards when crossing the border.

Ready for Canada?

The World Cup matches in Toronto and Vancouver are unique opportunities — and having reliable internet makes a difference when coordinating with friends at the stadium, finding restaurants, getting an Uber, and sending photos to family.
