Lay’s is the official sponsor of FIFA World Cup 26 & FIFA Women's World Cup 2O27

Lay’s is the official sponsor of both the FIFA World Cup 26 and FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027. This marks a global extension of Frito-Lay’s successful role as a regional supporter during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 and as a tournament supporter at the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023.

As official sponsor, Lay’s, alongside the portfolio of food brands, including Doritos, Cheetos, Tostitos, Ruffles, Cracker Jack, PopCorners, Quaker and Gamesa, will bring fans closer to the game with exclusive experiences, merchandise, consumer activations and more.

On announcing the deal, FIFA president Gianni Infantino said, “We’re delighted to extend this partnership with Lay’s and strengthen our collaboration as we head into a historic period for FIFA and the wider football community. After being involved in the last FIFA World Cup and FIFA Women’s World Cup, we’re proud that Lay’s has shared in our trust, vision and ideas for the development of the global game and has joined us on this journey into the future. Together, we will create special experiences for fans worldwide.”

“Joining FIFA as a regional sponsor in 2022 was a landmark moment for Frito-Lay, and we’re incredibly proud to have laid the groundwork for the next step of making our partnership global,” said Steven Williams, CEO of Frito-Lay and Quaker North America. “The Lay’s brand has a long history of bringing fans together through a shared love for the game, and we look forward to creating even more iconic moments as we continue to use our brands to unite and inspire FIFA World Cup and FIFA Women’s World Cup fans all over the world.”

The FIFA World Cup 26 will be the first edition to feature 48 teams and to be hosted across three countries – Canada, Mexico and the United States – while the FIFA Women’s World Cup will be held in South America for the first time in 2027. Lay's will break new ground at both tournaments by recognising and rewarding the “Fan of the Match” at every match, spotlighting those in the stands whose passion and energy bring the beautiful game to life and providing them with one-of-a-kind experiences.

Additionally, Lay’s, and the full portfolio of food brands, will engage fans on a global scale via in-store and digital promotions leading up to the FIFA World Cup 26 and the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027. The brands will also be prominently featured on the pitch at every match through LED stadium display board exposure and press conference backdrops. Going beyond the stadiums, Lay’s and the iconic food portfolio will deliver immersive consumer experiences at FIFA official fan zones across host cities.
