Informational meeting February 4, 2025
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is coming to Seattle!
Not only is this a huge event for soccer fans and sports fans in general, but it will also have a significant impact on the region’s economy. According to Visit Seattle, the 2026 World Cup will generate at least $929 million in economic activity in King County, including more than $100 million in state and local tax revenue. It could support over 20,700 jobs and bring about 750,000 visitors to Seattle, which is roughly equal to population of Seattle!
The City of Shoreline is partnering with the Shoreline Chamber of Commerce to host an informational meeting with the Seattle World Cup Local Organizing Committee.
This free event is open to anyone who lives, works, or owns property or a business in north King County or south Snohomish County interested in participating in community and/or business preparation for the World Cup.
Seattle is one of 16 cities across North America hosting this sporting event that is six times the size of the Super Bowl.
