Zero FIFA affiliation.

100% information that doesn’t suck.

Meet the Unofficial 2026 World Cup Guide For People Who Understand Football.

The tournament of a lifetime meets the guide that wonʼt waste your time.

No fluff.
No BS.

Inside this survival guide:

• Where to pre-game and where to cry on your beer after your team and dreams are crushed
• Where to crash (without selling a kidney)
• Where to eat without destroying your gut or credit score
• How to get to (and escape) each stadium
• How seriously each country takes the sport
• How to navigate this continental circus

No crappy fold-out maps

Those tourist maps with 6-point font and half the streets missing? Hard pass.

QR codes instead. They link to maps that actually work—ones you can zoom with your greasy fingers, that know which bars are still open, and show you how to dodge the human selfie-stick forest outside major attractions.

Shit changes.
We keep up.

Venues die. Prices explode. Stadium policies change weekly. The locals' favorite spot gets "discovered" and ruined.

This might be the world's first physical guide that actually updates itself.

When it matters, you'll know. No weekly spam about nothing. Just actual intel that stops you from showing up to a closed bar, a doubled cover charge, or a stadium that just banned whatever's in your pocket.

What to Pack

Coming soon

You’re not going to Milan Fashion Week. You’re going to sweat through the same three jerseys while eating street tacos and drinking overpriced stadium beer.

No “just in case” items that’ll sit in your bag for three weeks. Just the essentials that’ll keep you alive, relatively clean, and not completely broke from baggage fees.

Your back will thank you. Your wallet will thank you. And you’ll still look like shit by day three like everyone else.

We punch up at systems and corporations, not down at people trying to make a living. Any harsh criticism is directed at the tourism industrial complex, not the poor bastard serving your overpriced beer.
