A government shutdown at the Department of Homeland Security is delaying $625 million in FEMA security grants for 2026 FIFA World Cup host cities, raising concerns about planning and safety. Officials in cities like Miami, Kansas City, and Dallas report potential impacts, though local preparations continue. The issue was highlighted during a Congressional hearing on Tuesday.
Kansas City unveiled renderings and details for the FIFA World Cup 2026 Fan Fest at the National World War I Museum and Memorial on Tuesday. The free event will feature a 65-foot heart-shaped entrance, large screens, and live entertainment for up to 25,000 fans. It will operate for at least 18 days, aligning with the city's hosted matches and U.S. national team games.
