The countdown is on, and the world’s biggest sporting event is coming to our backyard! The 2026 FIFA World Cup will light up the Seattle area in June, and the SnoValley Innovation Center is kicking off the excitement early with a community-wide celebration you won’t want to miss.
Mark your calendars for Friday, December 5th at 9:00 AM, when we’ll gather to watch the official World Cup Draw live — the moment when dreams, rivalries, and strategies all take shape. This is when each qualified nation learns its group-stage opponents and potential knockout-round path. It’s the turning point when the tournament transforms from possibility into reality for teams, fans, and organizers alike.
We’re bringing the global energy of the draw to local venues across the Snoqualmie Valley, including:
Each location will be streaming the draw live, serving great food and drinks, and buzzing with soccer spirit.
To make the morning even more exciting, we’ll be giving away special soccer balls with prizes at each venue — a fun way to score some local swag while you cheer on your favorite teams. Bring your friends, your family, or your coworkers and be part of this global celebration right here in the Snoqualmie Valley.
Whether you’re a lifelong soccer fan or just love a good community event, this is your chance to feel the energy of the World Cup before it even kicks off. The 2026 tournament will bring the world’s eyes to Seattle — and our valley will be ready to welcome them with enthusiasm, creativity, and community pride.
The World Cup Draw is more than just names pulled from bowls — it’s the strategic heartbeat of the tournament. Teams begin planning their tactics, fans start predicting outcomes, and cities like ours begin to visualize the global excitement that’s coming our way. Watching it live connects us directly to that worldwide moment of anticipation.
Join us on December 5th at 9 AM across our SnoValley venues, and help us kick off the road to the 2026 World Cup in true community style.
Come for the soccer. Stay for the celebration. Catch the excitement!
