Squishmallows for the kids and cool cups for the adults
With the FIFA World Cup 26 beginning in just over a week, there are many ways for fans around the world to celebrate one of the biggest events in sports — including brand partnerships that are continuing to roll out. One of those is coming to McDonald’s, where, starting June 4, limited-time FIFA World Cup 26 meals will hit menus across the U.S. Then, beginning June 9, FIFA World Cup 26 Happy Meals will join the lineup, complete with collectible Squishmallows toys.
Le Creuset now makes products for food on the go
The FIFA World Cup 26 Meal is made for grown-up fans and will be available at participating U.S. McDonald’s locations starting June 4. You get your choice of a Big Mac or 10-piece Chicken McNuggets with a limited-edition Big Mac sauce for dipping (in a FIFA-themed gold package). There’s also a breakfast lineup that includes a Sausage McMuffin with Egg or Sausage Egg Biscuit.
Each meal also comes with one of nine collectible cups featuring a soccer legend: Christian Pulisic, David Beckham, Ronaldinho Gaucho, Thierry Henry, Son Heung-Min, Lamine Yamal, Alphonso Davies or Santiago Gimenez. One cup also features Grimace. Because, vibes.

The FIFA World Cup 26 Happy Meal drops on June 9 and will be available worldwide. Each one will include standard Happy Meal food items, but the real draw is the toy: Every order will come with one of 23 collectible Squishmallows. There are even some designed after the official FIFA mascots for this year’s host countries, Canada, Mexico and the United States. The plushies are kitted out in soccer jerseys with McDonald’s logos, and each one has a scannable code that unlocks an exclusive digital game online. They also come in limited-edition packaging unique to the World Cup.
A portion of every Happy Meal sold in the U.S. supports Ronald McDonald House families.
