SEATAC, WA — With FIFA World Cup 2026 matches beginning June 15 in the Seattle region, the City of SeaTac is moving quickly — and deliberately — to make sure its residents, businesses, and visitors are ready for one of the largest sporting events in the world. As home to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, three Link Light Rail stations, and one of the most genuinely international communities in the Pacific Northwest, SeaTac is not a bystander to this moment. The City is investing in it. Here is a look at what you can expect in the weeks ahead!
