In light of the unprecedented public turnout witnessed at the Egyptian Fan Zone (EFZ) in the New Capital for watching FIFA World Cup matches and enjoying its exceptional atmosphere, entertainment activities, and dining experiences, and as part of the Administrative Capital for Urban Development’s (ACUD) unwavering commitment to delivering an outstanding fan experience worthy of this major event, ACUD has decided to temporarily suspend operations at the Egyptian Fan Zone (EFZ) and regrets being unable to welcome visitors during Egypt’s upcoming match against Iran.
This suspension will last for 48 hours only, covering Friday and Saturday, June 26 and 27, in order to ensure the highest standards of viewing enjoyment and the exceptional experience that visitors deserve.
This proactive decision was made following thorough technical assessments, which indicated that the quality of the display on the giant screen would not meet the required level of clarity and performance during the match, particularly throughout the second half. As the continued success of the fan experience depends on maintaining the highest technical standards, ACUD has chosen not to compromise fans’ enjoyment and comfort.
ACUD also confirmed that the Egyptian Fan Zone (EFZ) will be fully prepared to welcome visitors once again and will officially reopen starting with the Round of 32 matches, including Egypt’s Round of 32 fixture, and will continue operating through the FIFA World Cup 2026 Final. This will ensure an exciting atmosphere and a complete, exceptional viewing experience for all fans.
ACUD thanks the public for its trust and understanding and wishes the national team every success in bringing joy to the Egyptian people.
