June 11–27, 2026
Watch World Cup group stage matches on a large screen set up along Pine Avenue in downtown Long Beach — free and open to the public.
The event runs daily from June 11–27, with two types of days: Regular vs. Major Activation Days.
On Regular Viewing Days, Pine Avenue between Broadway and 3rd St. is closed and the big screen plays live matches throughout the day.
On Major Activation Days (June 12, 18, 19, 20, 25, 26, and 27), the footprint expands to include Broadway between Pine and Pacific, bringing larger-scale programming to the area.
What to expect on Major Activation Days:
- Live match viewings on large screens with premium audio
- Appearances from Galaxy alumni, players, and special guests
- Limited-edition merchandise and giveaways
- Sponsor activations and interactive experiences
- Music and photo opportunities
- Family-friendly spaces and youth programming
