When the 2026 FIFA World Cup™ rolls into Toronto, the fun will ripple right across Lake Ontario and throughout Niagara. As a next-door neighbour to the Greater Toronto Area, Niagara is joining in on the FIFA World Cup™ party with all kinds of fun. Here’s where to experience Niagara’s signature take on FIFA World Cup™ excitement this June and July.

On July 18 and 19, Queen Victoria Park will host the final two days of the Canada Celebrates cross-country fan experience, a 38-stop tour that will touch down in 34 Canadian communities spanning from coast to coast to coast. Expect football-themed activations, cultural programming, music, food, and a heaping serving of Canadian pride.
