'Diversity, creativity, and unmistakable energy' - New York/New Jersey reveal official 2026 FIFA World Cup poster

The 2026 FIFA World Cup New York/New Jersey Host Committee unveiled the official regional poster for next year's event. Designed by Brooklyn-based award-winning artist Rich Tu, the poster is a visual celebration of the tournament.

"The FIFA World Cup is not just about the game - it's about energy, culture, and the communities that make it unforgettable," the artist said. "As someone who grew up in NJ, I wanted the poster to reflect the vibrancy and diversity that define this region. If you look closely, you'll find visual nods to both NY and NJ - each element intentionally expressive and distinct. I'm proud to contribute to a moment that celebrates the tournament and honors the spirit of our region on a global stage."

MetLife Stadium in New Jersey is set to host nine FIFA Club World Cup matches this summer and eight FIFA World Cup 2026 matches next year - including both finals.

"This poster is a bold celebration of everything that makes the NYNJ region so dynamic - our diversity, creativity, and unmistakable energy," said Bettina Garibaldi, chief marketing and communications officer of the NYNJ Host Committee. "Rich Tu's design captures the essence of who we are: a region that stands out. It reflects the communities we're proud to represent, and it sets the tone for how we'll engage, excite, and inspire fans on the road to 2026."

The poster will be available for purchase beginning April 19. For fans wanting to see it in person, it will be on display at 352 Marin Blvd. in Jersey City, and at the Poster House NYC.

At the 1994 FIFA World Cup, New Jersey's Giants Stadium hosted seven matches as the U.S. were tournament hosts.

The 2025 FIFA Club World Cup begins June 15 and runs through July 13, while the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off next June.
