Philly’s local host committee for the 2026 FIFA World Cup unveiled its volunteer center in the East Market’s Fashion District mall on Wednesday.

Located in a two-story, 18,000-square-foot space that was previously used for events like the Banksy immersive exhibition , it will serve as the city’s administrative hub for the tournament. It will also be the headquarters and main waiting point for volunteers, before they’re sent out to key locations during the tournament — in and around Lincoln Financial Field, for sure, but also at the Lemon Hill fanfest, Philadelphia International Airport and other popular transport locations for the games.
