FIFA Fan Festival™

ABOUT THE  LOCATION

The National WWI Museum and Memorial, one of Kansas City’s most recognizable landmarks, will be the host site for the iconic FIFA Fan Festival™. Known as “Kansas City’s Front Porch,” the Museum and Memorial is situated in the heart of the metro area and features a stunning view of the downtown skyline to the north.

Mayor Quinton Lucas stated the following, “The National WWI Museum and Memorial, an enduring symbol of the importance of international peace and cooperation, is an ideal location to bring people from around the world together in Kansas City. I look forward to the FIFA Fan Festival showcasing the vibrant cultures, talented artists and diverse cuisines that make Kansas City such a special place.”

A nexus point for multiple transportation corridors such as the KC Streetcar, bus, nearby Union Station, bike transit and several major highways, the Museum and Memorial is well-situated to meet the needs of the transit mobility plan to be implemented for FIFA World Cup 26™. And as the host of the 2023 NFL Draft Experience, it is a familiar landmark to many residents and visitors.

Fan Festival™ Programming, hours, and further details will be made available in updates throughout the coming months.
