A planned World Cup Fan Walk for Brazil will impact traffic south of the Texas Medical Center and east of Houston Stadium Monday morning through 11 a.m.
Fannin Street between Old Spanish Trail/Holly Hall and Greenbriar between OST and Fannin, are the two streets impacted the most, according to a post from the City of Houston Office of Emergency Management.
Brazil takes on Japan at noon Monday at Houston Stadium in the Round of 32 during the 2026 World Cup. Street impacts are expected from 8 to 11 a.m.
“Commuters are advised to seek alternate routes for their morning commutes to and from the affected area,” the post says.
Japan’s team nicknamed, “The Samurai Blue,” was the runner-up in Group F and faces Brazil, the winner of Group C, at Houston Stadium. Japan tied both the Netherlands and Sweden, and beat Tunisia to advance to the Round of 32.
Earlier in the World Cup, Japan played two of their three group stage games at Dallas Stadium, gaining a taste for Texas barbecue and Lone Star State staples.
