get_world_cup_2026_metadataLABSCO SUMMARY
Fixture times that are already in the right time zone.
Time-zone conversion is where World Cup schedules usually go wrong, and here it is a parameter on every query rather than arithmetic done afterwards. The JSON-LD dataset alongside the fixtures makes it usable as a citable source, not only a lookup.
What it is
A Node.js MCP server wrapping the free public schedule API of World Cup 2026 Tour, registered as io.github.abaiii168/world-cup-2026.
What you get
- All fixtures in a requested IANA time zone, filterable by stage, group, team and count
- The nearest upcoming fixture, also resolved to the time zone you name
- A single fixture by its public match id
- The Dataset JSON-LD together with all 104 public fixtures in UTC, for citation or bulk use
- API metadata: attribution, endpoint links and schema notes
- A Dockerfile and server.json carrying the MCP registry annotation, for publishing through a container registry
Requirements
Nothing — no API key. Node with npm for the local install, or the published Docker image. The maintainer asks that responses be cached responsibly and that the app be linked when the free data is used.
Setup effort
One command — docker run --rm -i world-cup-2026-mcp-server:local
USE CASES
01
Knowing when the next match kicks off where you are
Ask for the nearest upcoming fixture in your IANA time zone and get the local time back directly.
02
Planning around one team's group stage
Filter the fixtures by team and stage, in the time zone you will actually be watching from.
03
Checking the detail of one specific fixture
Look it up by its public match id when you already know which game you mean.
04
Using the schedule as a citable source
Pull the Dataset JSON-LD with all 104 fixtures in UTC, rather than scraping a schedule page.
05
Working out what the API can tell you
Read the metadata for attribution requirements, endpoint links and schema notes before building on it.
