What it does
This bill would require an agency designated by the mayor, or a city tourism and conventions entity designated by the mayor, to develop and publish two digital resources no later than one week before the start of the 2026 World Cup. The first is an events calendar of World Cup activities that have been submitted to the designated agency for inclusion, including viewing parties, street festivals, cultural programming celebrating participating nations, soccer clinics, art installations, and musical performances. The second is a digital map of small businesses hosting World Cup events, offering World Cup promotions, or otherwise connected to participating nations. The designated agency would also be required to conduct outreach to prospective participants, including small businesses and event organizers, to encourage submissions to the calendar and the map.
