AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoWorld Cup ticket relief: The Trump administration is suspending visa-bond payments (up to $15,000) for some foreign fans who bought World Cup tickets through FIFA, easing a major travel hurdle for countries including Senegal, which has games at New York/New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium. Finals halftime spectacle: FIFA confirmed the first-ever World Cup final halftime show at MetLife on July 19—Shakira, Madonna and BTS, curated by Coldplay’s Chris Martin, with proceeds tied to the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund. Demand wobble: Resale prices keep sliding as sales lag, with some U.S. matchups dropping 30%+ over the past month—hot news for fans, but a headache for FIFA’s forecasts. Paraguay angle: Paraguay’s June 12 opener vs the U.S. at SoFi is still the big local draw, and the ticket market is moving fast. Local culture: Paraguay also marked Independence Days with a two-day celebration focused on 1811’s quiet shift to freedom.
