CITY: Rio de Janeiro

 

STADIUM: Maracana (capacity 73,531)

 

HOME TO: Fluminense FC and CR Flamengo

 

The most iconic city in Brazil also includes arguably the most iconic stadium in world football. The Maracana was totally rebuilt especially for the World Cup. It officially reopened in June, when Brazil hosted England in a friendly. The stadium will host the final on July 13. With its carnival atmosphere, famous beaches and tourist attractions like Sugar Loaf Mountain and the Christ the Redeemer statue, Rio will be the most popular place to visit for fans. England have already confirmed that they will be based there for the tournament in the five-star Royal Tulip hotel.

CITY: Sao Paulo

 

STADIUM: Arena Corinthians (capacity 65,000)

 

HOME TO: Corinthians

 

Serious doubts have emerged about the stadium which is due to host the opening match of the tournament after a crane collapsed on the site last week, killing two workers. Sao Paulo is the spiritual birthplace of football in Brazil, but its unpredictable weather may turn off visitors. The south-eastern city is known as the Terra da Garoa (Land of the Drizzle) because of the almost incessant rain that falls there. A bit like Brazil’s version of Manchester.

 

MATCHES:

June 12, 2014     21:00     Brazil v Croatia - Group A    
June 19, 2014     20:00     Uruguay v England - Group D

STADIUM: Estadio Nacional Mane Garrincha (capacity: 68,009)

 

HOME TO: Brasília Futebol Clube

 

Named after former Botafogo and Brazil star Garrincha, who become one of the country’s biggest sporting icons in the 1950s and 1960s, the new-build stadium hosted the opening match of the Confederations Cup. Brasilia is home to some of Brazil’s most impressive architecture. It replaced Rio as the country’s capital in 1960.

CITY: Fortaleza

 

STADIUM: Estadio Castelao (capacity: 58,704)

 

HOME TO: Ceara SC and Ferroviario AC

 

The stadium, which will host Brazil’s second group game, has been given a revamp over the last couple of years in preparation for the World Cup. Fortaleza, which is located in the north-east of the country, is the capital of the Ceara province. Fortaleza is famous for tourism, beautiful beaches, delicious seafood and a unique carnival, which will coincide with the tournament. The tropical temperatures soar beyond 30 degrees centigrade and the atmosphere will be muggy.

 

MATCHES:

June 17, 2014     20:00     Brazil v Mexico - Group A

CITY: Belo Horizonte

 

STADIUM: Estadio Mineirao (capacity: 57,483)

 

HOME TO: Cruzeiro Esporte Clube

 

Venue for one of the semi-finals, Belo Horizonte’s biggest stadium has undergone a complete overhaul since Brazil won the right to host the World Cup. Ronaldo used to grace the surface of the Mineirao when he started his career with Cruzeiro. Located just an hour’s flight from Rio, Belo Horizonte is a more affordable option for travelling fans. Temperatures will be in the mid-20s, and there will be little humidity.

 

MATCHES:

CITY: Porto Alegre

 

STADIUM: Estadio Beira-Rio (capacity: 48,849)

 

HOME TO: Sport Club Internacional

 

Located on the banks of the River Guaiba, the Estadio Beira-Rio is the home of two Brazilian clubs - Internacional and neighbours Gremio. Porto Alegre has a subtropical climate so take an umbrella if you go there next summer. One of Porto Alegre’s biggest attractions is the famous Lago de Patos (Ducks Lagoon), which is surrounded by one million trees.

CITY: Recife

 

STADIUM: Arena Pernambuco (capacity: 44,248)

 

HOME TO: Nautico

Recife, located on the north-eastern coast of Brazil, hosted a match the last time the World Cup took place in the country in 1950. Its newly-built stadium is the home of home to three historic Brazilian clubs - Nautico, Santa Cruz and Sport. The locals are football mad. Recife is the capital of the state of Pernambuco, and is often called ‘the capital of the north-east’ due to its importance to Brazil’s economy.

 

MATCHES:

June 14, 2014     23:00     Ivory Coast v Japan - Group C         
June 20, 2014     17:00     Italy v Costa Rica - Group D

CITY: Salvador

 

STADIUM: Arena Fonte Nova (capacity: 52,048)

 

HOME TO : EC Bahia and EC Vitoria

 

Salvador will host the draw on Friday and six games during the tournament. Organisers lauded the fact that the newly-built complex contains a panoramic restaurant, museum of football, shops, hotels and a concert hall. They were left a little red-faced, however, when part of the roof collapsed in May due to heavy rainfall. No injuries were reported. Salvador, in the north-east of the country, was Brazil’s first capital. It will be humid there in June and July.

 

MATCHES:

June 13, 2014     21:00     Spain v Netherlands - Group B
June 16, 2014     18:00     Germany v Portugal - Group G

CITY: Cuiaba

 

STADIUM: Arena Pantanal (capacity: 42,968)

 

HOME TO: Cuiaba EC and Mixto EC

 

Especially built for the World Cup, the Arena Pantanal will host four matches during the tournament. Located in western Brazil, Cuiaba is just south of the Amazon rainforest, but it still retains a humid atmosphere so will feel muggy throughout the World Cup. Nicknamed the ‘Green City’ due to the vast national park that surrounds it, Cuiaba is popular with tourists, but they rarely visit in the Brazilian summer as temperatures can hit above 40 degrees centigrade.

 

MATCHES:

June 13, 2014     23:00     Chile v Australia - Group B
June 17, 2014     23:00     Russia v Korea Republic - Group H
June 21, 2014     23:00     Nigeria v Bosnia-Herzegovina - Group F        
June 24, 2014     21:00     Japan v Colombia - Group C

CITY: Manaus

 

STADIUM: Arena Amazonia (capacity: 42,374)

 

As the name of the stadium suggests, Manaus is located bang in the middle of the Amazon rainforest. Manaus is hardly a hotbed of football, but organisers felt it was important to take the World Cup to all four corners of the country despite fears the stadium will become a white elephant once the tournament ends. Humidity can reach 99 per cent during June and July.

 

HOME TO: Nacional FC, Fast Club and Rio Negro

 

MATCHES:

June 14, 2014     02:00     England v Italy - Group D
June 18, 2014     20:00     Cameroon v Croatia - Group A    
June 22, 2014     20:00     USA v Portugal - Group G        
June 25, 2014     21:00     Honduras v  Switzerland - Group E
