Seattle leaders and business groups are optimistic that the FIFA World Cup could provide a major economic boost to the region. With hundreds of thousands of visitors expected to travel to Seattle for matches at Lumen Field, supporters say the benefits could extend far beyond the tournament itself. Business leaders hope visitors who experience Seattle's walkable downtown, waterfront attractions, transit system, restaurants, and entertainment districts will return in the future, creating long-term tourism and economic benefits. The World Cup is expected to generate significant spending across hotels, restaurants, transportation, and local businesses, making it one of the largest economic opportunities Seattle has seen in years. #WorldCup2026 #Seattle #FIFAWorldCup #SeattleEconomy #EconomicImpact #Tourism #SeattleBusiness #DowntownSeattle #LumenField #WorldCup #BusinessNews #WashingtonState #SeattleNews #Travel #TheCenterSquare
