TikTok to Broadcast Parts of the 2026 World Cup

TikTok has announced a partnership with FIFA, designating the platform as the "preferred" one for broadcasting portions of the 2026 World Cup. This collaboration aims to attract more fans through live match clips, with TikTok asserting that live sports content increases the viewership of entire matches. The platform will offer additional interactive features, such as filters and gamification, while FIFA will provide content creators with access to exclusive material. The 2026 World Cup will be held in Canada, the USA, and Mexico from June 11th to July 19th.
