FIFA World Cup Fan Festival (Kansas City)
Thursday 11th June, 2026
The FIFA World Cup Fan Festival in Kansas City is an official, multi-day public viewing and celebration zone running from 11 June through mid-July 2026, with live match screenings, entertainment, food and brand activations at the National WWI Museum and Memorial grounds. This gives Airbnb’s PR team a chance to talk about accommodation demand, local host opportunities and guest experiences in Kansas City during the tournament, as well as the company’s role supporting travellers and hosts around major sporting events in the US.
Why have we flagged this?
Strong tie to travel and local hosting: the Fan Festival will drive demand for short-term stays and gives clear hooks for data on bookings, host tips, promotions for KC hosts, and reactive commentary about neighbourhood capacity and safety during the World Cup.
