Labor, Employment, and Immigration Considerations

The 2026 Men’s World Cup will be hosted across the United States, Canada, and Mexico—the first time the tournament will see three host countries—and be the largest to date, with 48 nations competing and nearly double the games. This presents companies with exciting opportunities for project development, investment, and commercial enterprise, while managing compliance and litigation risk.

The Planning for the 2026 World Cup webinar series will feature our lawyers, in-house counsel, and sports industry executives discussing top-of-mind issues surrounding the global sporting event. In this webinar, we will focus on topics relating to employment, labor, and immigration.

TOPICS WILL INCLUDE:

• Managing employees across multiple jurisdictions (US states, Mexico, and Canada)
• Contract, contingent, and union workforces
• Immigration planning for athletes and staff
