Liberty State Park Hosts Official 2026 FIFA World Cup Fan Festival
One year before the kickoff of the FIFA World Cup 2026, Liberty State Park in Jersey City has been named the official site of the FIFA Fan Festival for the New York/New Jersey region, serving as the central hub for fan celebrations during the 39-day tournament from June 11 to July 19, 2026. The festival will feature live music, interactive fan activations, real-time match broadcasts, and sponsorship integrations, with Live Nation and Diversified Production Services producing the event. MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, will host eight matches including the final, while the Fan Fest at Liberty State Park will accommodate up to 45,000 fans with about 22 big screens and stunning views of the Manhattan skyline, Ellis Island, and the Statue of Liberty. Officials anticipate over one million visitors to the region, prompting transit and logistical planning to ensure smooth access and minimal local disruption. New York Giants legend Victor Cruz, a Host Committee ambassador, highlighted the excitement of hosting such a globally significant event in his home region. The Host Committee also launched the Skyline to Shoreline Road Tour, a mobile fan experience designed to generate excitement throughout New York and New Jersey leading up to the World Cup.
