Accessibility

SeattleFWC26 is supporting the Seattle Parks Foundation effort to revitalize Westlake Park and surrounding plazas as vibrant, inclusive public spaces for fans and residents during the World Cup.

The Seattle FIFA World Cup 2026™ Local Organizing Committee (SeattleFWC26) is committed to making every event, activity, and fan experience inclusive and accessible to all—including people with disabilities, people with limited mobility, those needing visual or sensory access, and those requiring language or cultural support.

SeattleFWC26 is using the FIFA World Cup 2026™ as a platform to expand access, inclusion, and creativity across Washington. Through partnerships that advance adaptive sports, accessibility technology, and inclusive fan experiences, the LOC is ensuring that everyone—regardless of ability or background—can take part in the world’s game. From Blind Soccer and tactile broadcasting to accessible wayfinding and inclusive training programs, these efforts are shaping a legacy of innovation and belonging that will endure long after the final match.

As one of SeattleFWC26’s core Legacy initiatives and a featured experience in the SEA&WIN app, the Unity Loop uses this moment of global focus to make lasting progress on local priorities—creating new ways to explore, connect, and broaden the benefit of the World Cup for years to come.

SEA&WIN is designed to extend the impact of the World Cup beyond the stadium, guiding players to explore small businesses, cultural landmarks, and community spaces across the state.

Through play, learning, and exploration, SEA&WIN helps ensure that the benefits of hosting the World Cup are shared widely—by every neighborhood and every fan.
