THE FIFA Fan Festival will be Vancouver’s biggest watch party and the best place to cheer on live World Cup action outside of BC Place Vancouver. It will transform the Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) for 28 memorable days into a FIFA World Cup hub.
“The beautiful game belongs to everyone, and the FIFA Fan Festival will be a truly incredible opportunity to be a part of the celebration,” said Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim on Thursday. ”The Fan Festival will leave a lasting legacy in the hearts of all those who experience it. We are ready to put our best foot forward to proudly showcase local First Nations, Vancouver, British Columbia and Canada on a global stage.”
Admission to the FIFA Fan Festival Vancouver at the PNE will be free, ensuring that everybody is welcome including local families, visitors and fans of every age and background. With a capacity of up to 25,000, the expansive site will offer a wide array of uniquely curated experiences. For those seeking an elevated match‑day experience, a range of premium options will also be available. More details will be shared in the coming weeks to help everyone plan their unique FIFA Fan Festival experience.
“The Province is proud to support bringing this festival to life, showcasing what we do best — host world‑class events that bring people together,” said Anne Kang, Minister of Tourism, Arts, Culture and Sport. “Making access to the FIFA Fan Festival free is one of the ways British Columbians and visitors can share in this moment and feel part of the excitement. This celebration of sport and culture is part of the momentum that will carry on well beyond the World Cup, strengthening our tourism sector and inspiring communities for years to come.”
“The global energy of FIFA World Cup 2026 will infuse every moment of the FIFA Fan Festival with an irresistible celebratory atmosphere which will be accessible for all,” said Jessie Adcock, FIFA World Cup 26 Vancouver Host Committee Lead. “With something for everyone, this will be where fans of all ages will gather, connect and celebrate being part of something truly special which will leave lifelong memories.”
