Get ready, soccer fans! Chelsea, our neighbor next door, is turning up the energy for the 2026 FIFA World Cup with a summer-long “Fiesta de Fútbol” celebration featuring outdoor watch parties, live music, local food vendors, and Spanish-language broadcasts in Chelsea Square.

According to WBUR, city officials say the watch parties will kick off on June 11 and continue throughout the tournament. Organizers are calling it the only public World Cup watch party in Massachusetts featuring Spanish-only broadcasts.

The goal is to celebrate Chelsea’s vibrant Latino community while also bringing more visitors and business activity to the neighborhood. Expect a big-screen viewing experience right along Broadway, plus plenty of local flavor and community programming throughout the summer.

City officials are expected to release the full viewing schedule later this month, and visitors are encouraged to take public transportation due to limited parking in the area.
