FIFA Fan Fest Closes Early Due to Storm

FIFA Fan Fest in Boston shut down Thursday due to severe weather warnings — heavy rain, lightning, strong winds, even a possible tornado — prompting safety closures. The free, 16-day event caps attendance at 5,000 and requires advance registration, with big games like U.S. vs. Paraguay already sold out. Security, police, and transit partners are all involved to manage crowds and bag rules. Next major game: Scotland vs. Morocco on Friday night, with the fest opening at 3 p.m. — so Thursday plans? Hold off unless the skies clear. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
