I mean, listen, I think hotels will be full.
I think Airbnb will be a big part of that.
So if you need a space in the basement, Saran, I can help you out.
But I think it'll be quite the event over the 30 days of the summer.
Because there'll be some very, very limited compared to what you would see on kind of a Chiefs or even a Royals match day.
But it would be significantly less than a normal kind of event out there.
Spoken for a lot of those are, you know, the folks who bought the sweets, bought some of the hospitality packages.
Unknown if they'll release some as they get closer, they're probably holding some back just to make sure they've got.
But transportation is a big part of what the host committee has been working on.
I think probably the only city that doesn't have a robust public transportation system in place before the tournament.
I think this can be one of the legacy, hopefully, plays that come about.
I think the team's got a great transportation plan to get everyone from the region to FanFest, to Arrowhead, and then back.
And I think that covers
kansas and missouri and so i think for those particularly european fans coming in or non-american fans you're gonna that's going to be more useful for them to jump on a bus and get there for those who are not used to going out to you know coffin um and arrowhead might be a little bit different but we'll have a really good plan in place um and fan fest is at union station correct uh it'll be the south lawn of world war one so right around there kind of the back end of it on the flat side is where fan fest will be
Yeah, one I'd say, go to kc2026.com, anyone who wants information, it's all on there.
I would say, think of it like a hub, right?
So the center of the hub will be FanFest at World War I Museum, and then you've got routes that go everywhere from Lawrence to Olathe to
into jackson county to the stadium all of the above so the goal would be allow people to get into fan fest fan fest kind of central location gets you to airport gets you to any of the destinations and kind of all those cities around the region that you need to get you to the matches if you need to so the idea is complete flexibility gets you in there and you've got kind of a one-stop shop to get wherever you need from there how often is fan fest open is it open every day of the world cup is it open just when there are matches here how is that going to work
So matches here for sure.
I think 18 days is the total.
