Recommendations for Chileans traveling to Copa América 2024
The Copa America 2024 will be held in the United States between June 20 and July 14. This continental tournament will include the participation of the Chilean national football team.
Fourteen stadiums, located in fourteen cities in the United States, will host the different teams that will compete in the tournament. In the group stage, Chile will face Peru in its first match on Friday, June 21 at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington. It will also play at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and at the Inter&Co Stadium in Orlando, Florida. If Chile advances in the championship, La Roja could eventually play in other cities and stadiums.
Therefore, it is essential that Chileans who will travel to the United States know the nearest consulates in case of emergency, as well as the roles the consulates can perform.
