With the countdown clock hitting the 50-day mark, the Los Angeles World Cup 2026 Host Committee has officially opened ticket sales for the FIFA Fan Festival Los Angeles. From June 11–14, the historic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum will transform into the ultimate global hub for football, culture, and community.
This is the place to be for the tournament’s high-energy opening weekend. Fans can catch live match broadcasts on massive screens, enjoy a lineup of live entertainment, and dive into interactive experiences that bring the spirit of the World Cup to life beyond the stadium walls.
“The FIFA Fan Festival will be the central gathering place for the FIFA World Cup in Los Angeles,” said Kathryn Schloessman, CEO of the Los Angeles World Cup 2026 Host Committee. “We are excited to invite Angelenos and visitors from around the world to be part of this once-in-a-generation celebration.”
Ride the what?
Ride the Wave! Metro is the Way to Play The Host Committee and LA Metro are teaming up to ensure the festival is as accessible as it is exciting. To beat the traffic and keep the celebration going, fans are being urged to Go Metro.
“The FIFA Fan Festival experience begins on Metro where riders can celebrate with other fans as they travel to the celebrations,” said Metro CEO Stephanie Wiggins. “With convenient, affordable, safe and reliable transit options, Metro is making it easy for everyone to get to the Coliseum.”
Taking the E (Expo) Line is the smartest play of the tournament, with two stops located directly adjacent to the Coliseum: Expo Park/USC and Expo/Vermont.
Ticketing & Access The festival is designed for everyone, with General Admission tickets priced at just $10 (inclusive of fees), and kids under 12 getting in for free.
For those looking for a more elevated experience, $30 premium tickets offer access to a hospitality tower lounge. This shaded, air-conditioned retreat provides food and beverage options and a bird’s-eye view of the entire festival grounds and the oversized match screens.
A Global Feast The programming follows the pulse of the pitch, featuring an immersive blend of sport and local flavor. The “World Cup on a Plate” menu includes everything from South African bunny chow and Brazilian pão de queijo to German currywurst and local Los Angeles favorites.
