It is time to rally the squad, secure your ticket, and dive into an epic four-day FIFA festival celebrating the global tournament coming to Union Station.
Union Station’s historic Ticket Concourse will soon become the Main Stage, where thousands of fans can unite for a full-scale match viewing experience on a supersized LED screen alongside live DJ sets, trivia, and meet-and-greets. Additional screens will broadcast the action continuously out in Lot B and within the Waiting Room.
For those ready to step onto the field themselves, the outdoor Train Like a Pro experience allows you to test your skills with dribbling challenges, speed kicking, accuracy tests, and a dedicated photo station.
The entertainment lineup brings major star power, including a live show by the global soccer media phenomenon Men in Blazers, hosted by Roger Bennett with special celebrity guests. Over at the Coca-Cola Fan Zone, guests can access team customization stations, exclusive giveaways, and photo opportunities. To keep your energy levels up for the full ninety minutes, Matchday Eats will serve local favorites from Traxx Restaurant & Bar, Everywhere Beer, Cilantro Fresh Mexican Grill, Wetzel’s Pretzels, and Iced Above, alongside a special Smorgasborg food truck pop-up under the clock tower featuring Morales Fruit and Happy Ice.
Beyond the matches, the festival atmosphere continues with themed face painting, hand-drawn caricatures, and a community-decorated soccer ball designed by artist Mr. B Baby.
In the Metro Art Passageway Gallery, the “Play” exhibition by Pelle Cass explores layered, stop-motion athletic compositions that celebrate the joy of movement. Metro will also feature a 40-foot tournament-wrapped bus for photos, while the Metro TAP & Info Dome will offer transit guidance and commemorative TAP cards.
The festivities extend to neighboring El Pueblo de Los Angeles and LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes, creating a unified destination for live music, food, and cultural programming as the city takes the global stage.
This free, all-ages celebration takes place at Los Angeles Union Station, located at 800 N. Alameda Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012.
