The 2026 FIFA World Cup is more than just a tournament. With over 6.5 million fans expected to attend, it's become one of the world's largest economic events.
In this episode of Down to Business, we take a look into the shift happening in retail & merchandise for the World Cup. Cultural relevance has become the new currency. Online retailer REVOLVE and PacSun are capitalizing on the World Cup as a shared global moment, recognizing that young people increasingly view sports as integrated with music, fashion, and art. It's no longer just about buying a jersey or a hat. It's about buying access to a cultural moment, a tribe, a shared experience.
