The 2026 FIFA World Cup is projected to bring more than $1 billion in economic activity to California, based on impact reports from the Bay Area Host Committee and its organizer the Fédération Internationale de Football Association.

In a June press release, it projected the World Cup, along with the NBA All-Star game—set for Chase Center in San Francisco in 2025—and Super Bowl LX, to be played at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara in 2026, will bring in a combined $1.4 billion in revenue to the area.
