Visitors to Philadelphia’s FIFA Fan Fest may have noticed long lines at Bank of America’s booth.
The company is hosting an activation where visitors can make their own bracelets, referred to as Fan Bands, featuring Philly and World Cup themed charms.
In response to long wait times, Fan Fest organizers are introducing a new wristband system to reduce wait times and lines, allowing guests to enjoy the rest of the event’s offerings.
Beginning June 24, 2026, wristbands will be distributed to guests at the gates of Fan Fest before the daily event starts.
The paper wristbands will feature a color corresponding to a specific one-hour time slot for the Bank of America activation. Organizers recommend guests check with the Bank of America team for each day’s wristband colors and corresponding time slots.
If wristbands remain after Fan Fest opens, guests can stop by the Bank of America booth to receive a wristband for an available time slot.
Guests should return to the booth during the assigned time slot to create the custom bracelet.
Wristbands are available on a first-come, first-served basis and are limited to one per guest.
