World Cup winds down at Gillette Stadium as 64,000 seat stickers come off

As the 2026 FIFA World Cup concludes at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, the 64,000 seat labels bearing sponsor branding are set to be peeled away, returning the venue to its normal state. FIFA’s branding rules required the removals, a task that—at one sticker per minute—could have taken over 1,000 hours. SoFi Stadium is praised as the event’s best venue, and the remaining World Cup games will be held in Miami, Kansas City, Atlanta, Dallas, and New Jersey.

Kraft Group targets Foxborough with suit over Gillette Stadium licensing fees

The Kraft Group and affiliated entities filed a Norfolk County Superior Court suit against Foxborough, alleging the town exceeded its authority by charging roughly $1 million in new entertainment-license fees for Gillette Stadium, a sum the plaintiffs say goes beyond the statutory $100 maximum and is revenue-driven rather than tied to safety or services; Foxborough says the charges cover public-safety and municipal services for large events and will be resolved through the legal process.
