McDonalds x Fifa 2026

Fans put in just as much heart, soul, and sweat into the game as the players.

Sweat Together

Phase 1: Place OOH ads in high traffic areas around the Fifa stadiums and in the airports for higher visibility from international travellers arriving for the events.

Phase 2: Utilize the McDonald’s app to create a fantasy football daily draft for users to potentially gain points to use towards McDonalds rewards.

Phase 2: Daily posts where our coach character, Ted Lasso, informs McDonald’s Instagram followers of his top pics of the day.

Strategically timed with the release of Ted Lasso Season 4.

Phase 3: Distribute McDonald’s branded “SWEAT TOGETHER” Sweat towels at each Fifa match.

Strategy:

Fans don’t just watch the game, they fuel it. After giving everything in the stands, they deserve a place that refuels them.
