Host committee, city and regional officials giving World Cup update
Ready for the World Cup? It’s just over a month until the first game of the continent-straddling soccer tournament kicks off on June 11, and only 38 days until Vancouver hosts its first game of seven at B.C. Place.
Media in Vancouver are today being invited to hear from a range of officials about how all the prep is going for the city’s role in the sporting spectacle, and how fans and residents can prepare themselves.
Those official voices include the Vancouver Police Department’s deputy chief, the CEO of TransLink and members of FIFA’s World Cup 2026 Vancouver team. The briefing is set to begin at 10:45 a.m. PT. You can watch the livestream above.
Vancouver is one of 16 host cities for the 2026 tournament, which is being co-hosted by Canada, Mexico and the United States.
