Two FEMA toolkits are available with safety messaging to help people during upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026™ activities across the country

FEMA recently published two new toolkits to help spread public safety messaging for FIFA World Cup 2026™, which is expected to attract more than five million international visitors and generate tens of billions of dollars in economic activity over 38 days.

“From fans to first responders, everyone can help make the FIFA World Cup 2026™ safe and memorable. With millions of visitors expected, it is vital that we all know how to prepare and respond,” said FEMA Associate Administrator of the Office of External Affairs, Victoria L. Barton. “Whether you are a state government, a local leader or even a business owner, these toolkits have resources you need to help your community stay safe and prepared. Please use and share them to help keep everyone informed and ready.”

For more than a year, FEMA has been working closely with its partners across the country to keep players, fans and host city residents safe during the events. The toolkits are key resources that anyone can use to share specific, actionable public safety tips. They include key preparedness messaging and sample text for use in social media posts, as well as graphics to increase engagement.
