The Miami-Dade County Commission is preparing for the FIFA World Cup by making important budget allocations at a meeting on Monday. The city is investing up to $46 million in cash subsidies to cover various government services such as police, paramedics, and other essential services. A final vote on this expenditure will be held at the upcoming meeting.
Miami is set to host seven matches at the Hard Rock Stadium from June 15 to July 18, 2026, during the World Cup. This will involve nearly a month of international soccer festivities, attracting a large number of visitors and placing the city in the global spotlight. The commission’s decision during Monday’s meeting will determine the financial strategies that Miami will implement to manage the influx of visitors and handle the heightened attention during one of the most-watched sporting events in the world.
