Before Day 1...

Before Day 1, before the first whistle… there’s a whole world behind it.

It takes more than 200 people to bring this to life - and for the next five days, and for the next five days, a dedicated team will be here, working to make every moment possible.

To each and every one of you, thank you.

And to all participants, thank you for believing in this festival and trusting us to be part of your journey. Make memories, feel every moment, and enjoy every second on and off the pitch.
