What it was like
The World Cup is coming to the United States for the first time since 1994, and Los Angeles got one of the anchor venues. The FIFA Fan Festival opens at the Memorial Coliseum on June 11th, 2026 — free to enter — and it is the public face of a tournament that has been building toward this moment for thirty-two years.
The Fan Festival is what the World Cup looks like from the outside: giant screens broadcasting every match, fan zones organized by country, food and culture from the nations competing, and the particular atmosphere of tens of thousands of people who are all in it together even if their flags say different things. The Coliseum, which has hosted two Olympics and a Super Bowl, has the infrastructure to handle this. The experience it produces is not a watch party. It is a civic event.
June 11th is the opening day. Come for the tournament's beginning — when every country still believes and the energy is at its highest before any heartbreak has happened. Free admission. 3911 S Figueroa St. The matches start in the morning and run through the afternoon. Arrive early enough to find your people before the first whistle.
