FIFA World Cup trophy to be on show at the Dragão | OneFootball

The FIFA World Cup trophy will be at the Estádio do Dragão on February 6th (Friday), marking the first time this prestigious trophy is hosted in a Portuguese venue.

Created in 1974 for the World Cup in Germany, replacing the Jules Rimet Trophy – which Brazil had permanently won four years earlier – the trophy currently belongs to the Argentina team, winners in 2022. Portugal will be one of the teams aiming to win it next summer, in the tournament to be held in the USA, Canada, and Mexico.

The presence of the trophy at the Dragão is promoted by Coca-Cola, a partner of FC Porto, and will lead to a day full of activities.

In the morning, institutional actions and press meetings will take place at the Estádio do Dragão; in the afternoon, the 3x3 Tournament will be held, with 128 participants, where football legends will face fans in matches at the Dragão Arena. The FC Porto Vintage team will be among the participants.

Those wishing to play must register on the Coca-Cola Portugal website. Additionally, at the FC Porto–Gil Vicente game on January 26th, Coca-Cola will be present in the Friendzone, at Praça do Dragão, with a space for on-site registrations.

Alongside the tournament, all visitors – even those not participating in the games – can enjoy entertainment activities and football technique challenges with prizes; personalize a Coca-Cola scarf, choosing the colors of the country they wish to support in the World Cup; and take a photo with the original FIFA World Cup 2026 trophy.

The 23rd edition of the World Cup will be the largest ever, with 48 teams, and will take place from June 11th to July 19th.
