All-Star Week showed what the city of Arlington was capable of as it prepares for the FIFA World Cup in 2026.
MLB All-star Week is in the books, but the spotlight on the city of Arlington will just get bigger in the next few years.
“We've been meeting with them for more than one year at this point,” Arlington Police spokesperson Sgt. Alex Rosado said. “We're going to continue to meet with them in the years to come and even debrief, not only this event, but past events that we've had to really fine-tune our plan to ensure that we're safe and we can get fans in and out of the area as efficiently and as safely as possible.
With Globe Life Field, AT&T Stadium, Choctaw Stadium and the Arlington E-Sports Arena all in the Entertainment District, the area is no stranger to events with heavy traffic.Around a half million people swarmed to the Entertainment District for the Rangers’ World Series parade. But, All-Star Week was a better test for the specific kind of crowd that will be in the city for the World Cup Matches.
