2026 World Cup: FIFA to stage a “FIFA House” in New York during the tournament’s final week (13-19 July)

FIFA will stage a “FIFA House” at Bryant Park in Manhattan (New York City), from 13-19 July 2026, the governing body announced on 4 June 2026. The dates correspond to the final week of the 2026 World Cup, whose final is scheduled to take place at MetLife Stadium (New Jersey, USA), around 20 kilometres west of Manhattan, on 19 July 2026 (kick-off at 21:00 CET).

"Specifically designed to bring together the people who help shape and support the global game — from partners and legends to sporting executives and guests — FIFA House will be the place where those behind the FIFA World Cup 2026 come together to celebrate football, share ideas and explore the future of the sport," the Zurich-based organisation, which has also operated an office in Manhattan’s Trump Tower, close to Bryant Park, since the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, added.

The programming of FIFA House, developed by global sports marketing agency The iLUKA Collective, will combine "football, culture, entertainment and business." Details of the programme had not been announced as of 4 June 2026.
