About MetLife Stadium
MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, is the largest stadium in the NFL and one of the largest in the world, with a seating capacity of approximately 82,500. It is home to both the New York Giants and the New York Jets and opened in 2010 within the Meadowlands Sports Complex. The stadium is located approximately ten miles west of Manhattan and is served by NJ Transit rail and bus connections, making it accessible from across the New York metropolitan area.
The New York and New Jersey market is the highest-profile of all 2026 FIFA World Cup venues, and MetLife Stadium is scheduled to host the World Cup Final on July 19, 2026, as well as several knockout-round matches. Crowds of over 80,000 are expected for the Final. Given the extraordinary scale of the event, any items lost in the stadium during the Final or other knockout matches should be reported as quickly as possible, as the post-match clear-up of a venue of this size is extensive and fast-moving.
What Should You Do If You’ve Lost Something at MetLife Stadium ?
If you notice a missing item while still inside MetLife Stadium, go to the nearest guest services desk or information point immediately. Staff will log your report and alert relevant teams across the venue. The sooner you report, the more likely your item is still in the area where it was lost.
If you have already left the stadium, contact the lost property office during regular office hours. You can also use our platform to file a report, and our team will follow up with the MetLife Stadium lost property service on your behalf.
You can also submit a report through our platform, so that our team can contact and follow up with the lost property office(s) on your behalf.
How to Report a Lost Item at MetLife Stadium ?
When filing your report, include the date and time of the match or event you attended, your seating section or the area of the stadium where the item was last seen, a full description of the item including colour, brand, and any identifying features, and your contact details. If you were part of a group, note the names of others who were with you.
Lost Property During FIFA World Cup 2026 Matches
During FIFA World Cup 2026 match days, MetLife Stadium will operate an additional on-site lost and found service within the venue, staffed to handle the elevated volume of reports generated by international crowds. This temporary service supplements the regular lost property office. Visitors are strongly encouraged to report missing items before leaving the stadium, as items left at large-scale events are typically held for a limited window often 30 days or less before being transferred or disposed of in line with venue policy.

- Report as soon as you notice the item is missing do not wait until after the match

- Describe the item precisely: type, colour, brand, model, size, and any unique markings
- If the item is electronic, note the make, model, and whether it has a protective case
- Include a contact number and email address so staff can reach you quickly
- Keep any reference number issued by stadium staff for follow-up communications
- For high-value items such as passports or medical equipment, flag these as urgent when filing
