Mamdani, NYC Parks enact emergency order to block certain 'large-scale' gatherings during FIFA World Cup
"The emergency rule doesn't mean that all permits will be denied during the FIFA period. It gives NYC Parks wider latitude when reviewing permits, and only pertains to large-scale events that require significant police presence."
"Permit applications for certain events may be denied if they take place between June 11 and July 19, were not held in 2025, or are deemed unsafe due to lack of resources."
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani signed an emergency order affecting permit applications for special events during the FIFA World Cup. The decision aims to ensure efficient deployment of police resources, as significant personnel realignment is necessary for official World Cup events. Permits may be denied for events occurring between June 11 and July 19, those not held in 2025, and events deemed unsafe by NYC Parks and the NYPD. Smaller events not requiring police presence are exempt from this order.
