FIFA joined forces with the New York Red Bulls to set up these free public screenings. Soccer giants Manchester City, Real Madrid, Palmeiras, and Inter Miami CF will battle it out in the knockout rounds, bringing world-class action to downtown Manhattan.
At the BULLevard fan zone, visitors can join in soccer-themed activities and snag team merchandise. The Oculus Beer Garden will serve drinks while nearby food stands dish out snacks and meals.
For the first time ever, 32 teams will compete in this global tournament. While entry is free, fans should sign up online to stay informed. The plaza won't have chairs: it's standing room only.
Sports fans might know the plaza from past events. Yankees-Mets showdowns and NBA playoff games have drawn crowds here before. These watch parties build excitement as New York prepares to welcome the 2026 World Cup at MetLife Stadium.
Skip the car: no parking spots will be open. Take the PATH train or MTA instead. You'll find the plaza between Church and Greenwich Streets, right on Fulton Street.
Bad weather might change plans. Keep an eye on Port Authority social media for any updates about cancellations or changes.
