The FIFA Fan Festival transforms Boston City Hall Plaza into a downtown football hub for 16 days during the 2026 FIFA World Cup Group Stage. Register for free tickets Here.

From June 12 through June 27, fans can gather to watch live broadcasts of 2 to 3 matches per day, enjoy football-themed activities and entertainment, and sample a curated food and beverage lineup featuring local flavors.

Programming also includes a Cultural Showcase highlighting Boston-area artists, musicians, and performers, designed as a true community celebration that pairs the global energy of the World Cup with the character of the city.

The festival is free and open to the public, but advance registration is required. More information on the registration process is expected closer to the event.
