To support the event, the city of Greenfield was awarded $10,000 through the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism’s Sports and Entertainment Events Fund, a competitive statewide grant program created to support major events that drive tourism, economic activity, and community engagement across the Commonwealth.

“We are thrilled to bring the excitement and energy of the FIFA World Cup right here to Greenfield,” Recreation Director Christy Moore said. “These watch parties are about much more than soccer; they are an opportunity to connect with neighbors, celebrate cultures from around the world, and create a memorable community experience. Whether you’re a lifelong soccer fan or simply looking to be part of something special, we invite everyone to join us as we cheer on the beautiful game together. After the match, we encourage attendees to visit one of Greenfield’s many local restaurants and businesses, extending the celebration through the power of sport, culture, community, and local connection.”
