SeattleFWC26 partnered with nine communities across Washington State to create official Fan Zones, ensuring residents statewide — not just in Seattle — could celebrate the FIFA World Cup 2026 together.
A Statewide Celebration
SeattleFWC26 partnered with the largest cities in each of Washington's most populous counties outside King County to establish official Fan Zones, bringing World Cup energy to tens of thousands of fans beyond Seattle.
Nine Communities, One Cup
Fan Zones were established in Bellingham, Bremerton, Everett, Olympia-Lacey, the Puyallup Tribe of Indians, Spokane, Tri-Cities, Vancouver, and Yakima — each hosted at a local landmark, from Quincy Square in Bremerton to Riverfront Park in Spokane.
From Bellingham to Yakima
Every Fan Zone offered its own local flavor of programming, letting fans across the state watch matches, gather with their communities, and share in a truly statewide celebration of the tournament.
