HERO returns to football’s biggest stage.
Across North America, three World Cup 2026 venues have been prepared with HERO Hybrid Grass.
Lincoln Financial Field
BC Place
SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park
Three Stadiums.
Three Challenges.
One Proven System.
But this story is about more than a playing surface.
Behind every venue sits years of technology, innovation, planning, expertise and partnership. From GST Global and HG Sports Turf, to turf farms, grounds team, universities and industry leaders, the journey to World Cup 2026 has been built through collaboration.
HERO Hybrid Grass has already been trusted at previous international tournaments, including the Women’s World Cup 2023 and Club World Cup 2025.
Now, it returns again.
Over the coming weeks, we’ll take you behind the scenes of the stadiums, the growers, the technology and the people helping prepare the surface beneath football’s biggest stage.
Welcome to……THE SURFACE BEHIND THE SPECTACLE.
