On Thursday, more than 50 business owners and community leaders were invited to the Houston 2026 World Cup Bid Committee’s Art of Soccer special viewing ceremony and received an update on the bidding process for the location of the game.
The Art of Soccer campaign also had painted oversized ceramic soccer balls on display at the event, sharing plans to eventually place them in high-traffic areas across the city. The soccer balls were created by artists from the Houston area. Houston 2026 World Cup Bid Committee President Chris Canetti said Houston’s spirit is what makes the city unique and worthy of hosting the game.
“Today’s Art of Soccer viewing party is another example of how Houstonians are rallying together to support our city’s bid to deliver a World Cup of the Future, in America’s City of the Future. Not only does it demonstrate the incredible commitment and investment from public, private, and civic institutions, but it also underlines Houston’s unique spirit that sets it apart from any other candidate city,” said Canetti.
