Toronto is the most multicultural city in the world β literally 50% of residents were born outside Canada. Every nation playing in this tournament has a diaspora community here. You'll hear your home country's chants on the TTC on match day. BMO Field is the most intimate stadium in the tournament and the atmosphere it generates at 45,000 capacity punches well above its weight. US visitors: you need local Canadian dollars (CAD), not USD β very few places accept USD.
