World Cup Prep Amid Challenges

The World Cup kicks off this weekend in Foxborough amid pre-game drama over transportation, security funding, and tailgating rules—but organizers are determined to turn heads toward the action on the field. Despite criticism, Boston’s Martha Sheridan insists the scale of the event makes it incredibly complex, and bookings remain strong. With hotels adjusted and a robust public transit plan in place, organizers aim to minimize traffic and maximize fan experience. Massachusetts and federal funds, plus $20M in private donations, are fueling the effort—everyone’s hoping the games will shine brighter than the headlines.
