Everett's Fan Zone
Stay. Play. Cheer. In Everett.
In summer 2026, the world’s game comes to the Pacific Northwest with Seattle hosting six FIFA World Cup 26 Seattle™ matches - and Everett will be part of the celebration. Our city will become a gathering place for fans, families and visitors who want to experience the excitement of the tournament in a relaxed, welcoming setting.
Here, the pace is easy. Catch matches with other fans, enjoy live music and local food, and explore a summer calendar filled with art, culture and community events. From the waterfront to downtown, and across the whole city, Everett will be alive with energy, creativity and Northwest spirit.
The perfect Pacific Northwest basecamp between Seattle and Vancouver.
Everett sits perfectly between Seattle and Vancouver - close to the matches, surrounded by everything that makes the Pacific Northwest special. It’s easy to get here, easy to explore, and easy to settle in.
You’ll find comfortable hotels, waterfront views, and a city that blends creativity, good food, and genuine community. Spend your mornings in local cafés, your afternoons cheering alongside fans, and your evenings catching a concert watching the sun set over Port Gardner Bay.
Experience the games in Everett
Everett will host a series of fan celebrations during the FIFA World Cup 26 Seattle™ - from live match viewings to outdoor concerts and cultural gatherings. It’s all part of a season-long celebration that will welcome fans from across the region and around the world.
Exact event dates and details will be announced after the FIFA Team Draw in December 2025, but you can count on lively crowds, local flavor, and the kind of hospitality Everett is known for.
Plan your visit
Getting here is simple - Everett is a short trip from Seattle, Vancouver BC, and Paine Field Airport. Once you’re here, you’ll find walkable streets, neighborhood restaurants, creative spaces, and the waterfront just steps away.
