Kansas City is gearing up for an influx of visitors as it prepares to host six matches for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with hotel availability becoming increasingly limited. Tourism officials anticipate over 600,000 visitors, with many hotel rooms under FIFA contract, driving local hosts like Adam Kinner to rent their homes. The city, one of the smallest host locations, is also seeing new hotel developments, including the River Market Hotel, which aims to open just before the event. This tournament is expected to have a significant economic impact, making it the largest tourism event in Kansas City’s history.
