The FIFA World Cup is scheduled to take place across multiple U.S. cities beginning in June 2026. The event is expected to draw large international crowds and requires extensive coordination among federal agencies such as U.S. Customs and Border Protection, local law enforcement bodies, and public safety organizations to ensure security throughout the tournament period.
