What to Know About the FIFA Fan Festival in New York

The FIFA Fan Festival is a free, outdoor public event run by the 2026 FIFA World Cup host committees on match days and selected surrounding days. Each host city maintains a designated Fan Festival site where supporters can watch matches live on giant screens, enjoy food and drink vendors, entertainment acts, and official FIFA merchandise. The events are open to all visitors, with no match ticket required for entry.

The New York Fan Festival is hosted at two sites in the New York area,Fan Zone Queens at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Flushing (June 17–28), and Fan Village at Rockefeller Center in Midtown Manhattan (July 4–19). Note that the originally announced Liberty State Park venue was cancelled and replaced by these two alternative sites. The event runs Fan Zone Queens: June 17–28 ; Fan Village at Rockefeller Center: July 4–19 and is expected to draw large crowds on every match day, particularly for games involving popular national teams. World Cup matches for the New York area are played at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, including the tournament Final on July 19. Each venue operates its own lost and found process.

What Should You Do If You’ve Lost Something at the New York Fan Festival ?

A lost and found service is operated on-site during event days and hours. If you realise an item is missing, report it to the nearest event staff member or information point as soon as possible, ideally before you leave the site. Outdoor fan events process a high volume of lost property, and items not claimed on the day are typically held for a much shorter window than at a permanent venue.

No dedicated phone number is available for the lost and found at this Fan Festival location. To report a missing item or check on its status, you can visit the official host committee website.

You can also submit a report through our platform, so that our team can contact and follow up with the lost property office(s) on your behalf.

Items Not Recovered on the Day

If your item was not found during the event, your next step is to contact the main lost and found authority for New York,typically the city’s main police station or central transit hub,after the festival has closed. You can find links to the relevant New York lost property services on our platform.

For lost travel documents such as passports, act immediately. Contact your country’s embassy or consulate in USA as soon as possible.
