The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has approved a substantial $52 million grant to Atlanta for security preparations ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. This significant federal investment will help ensure comprehensive safety measures are in place when the city hosts matches during the historic tournament. Atlanta is one of 16 host cities across the United States, Canada, and Mexico for the 2026 World Cup, which will be the largest FIFA World Cup in history with 48 teams participating. The FEMA funding will support enhanced security infrastructure, personnel training, and emergency response capabilities to handle the massive influx of international visitors expected during the tournament.
