2026 Games in U District
The University District will be one of Seattle’s most active neighborhoods during the final weekend of the FIFA® World Cup™ †. On Saturday, July 18 and Sunday, July 19, U District Advocates is hosting a free, two- day community celebration at the Square at U District Station; featuring live match screenings, a futsal soccer tournament, concerts, and outdoor movie.
We are inviting U District businesses to participate in a simple, structured promotion designed to direct event attendees to your door.
Here is how it works.
Passport to Businesses
Wristband Discount Program
All event attendees receive a free wristband printed with a unique raffle number and a QR code linking to a directory of participating businesses and their offered discounts. As a participating business, you agree to:
• Offer a discount off the entire purchase to any wristband bearer during the event weekend
• Display the official participation sticker, provided by U District Advocates, on your front door or window
• Register by the deadline of June 30, 2026
No other commitment is required. The wristband and QR code system drives traffic to you.
Raffle Prize Contribution
Optional
Businesses may also contribute a gift certificate or prize of $50 value or more to be awarded in the free attendee raffle, with or without a one-time $25 match from U District Advocates. Prize donors will be announced at the event alongside their contribution. Prizes may be issued as your own gift card or coupon, or we can provide a U District coupon with a unique serial number and online verification.
