FIFA World Cup 2026 has kicked off, and it's already the summer of community.
From Phoenix to Denver, the French American Chamber of Commerce network has been showing up big for Les Bleus — and the energy has been unmatched.
Phoenix: Allez les Bleus at Treffpunkt
What a great afternoon with the Alliance Française of Greater Phoenix community as we gathered at Treffpunkt to support France in its opening match. Our thanks go to Treffpunkt and the RMFACC (French American Chamber of Commerce – Rocky Mountain Chapter) for the partnership that made it possible.
From flags and jerseys to plenty of cheers, the atmosphere was fantastic, and then Kylian Mbappé delivered the goal that sent the room into celebration.
Moments like these are a reminder of why we do this: sports bring people together across generations and cultures. Thank you to everyone who joined us at Treffpunkt to celebrate, connect, and cheer on Les Bleus.
Allez les Bleus! 🇫🇷
Denver: Our Biggest Watch Party Yet
The French community in Denver showed up and showed out.
Our France vs. Sweden watch party at Stoney's Bar and Grill was our biggest gathering yet, drawing a full house of members and friends ready to cheer on the team.
We also had the honor of welcoming a very special guest: Adrien Frier, Consul General of France at the Consulate General of France in Los Angeles.
His presence added a meaningful layer of connection between our community and French diplomatic representation on the West Coast.
The energy in the room was absolutely electric and we're already looking forward to doing it all again for the next match.
The Bigger Picture
Whether it's a quiet gathering at Treffpunkt in Phoenix or a packed house at Stoney's in Denver, these watch parties are about more than the scoreline.
They're proof that our chapters know how to bring people together, members, prospective members, consular guests, and local partners alike around a shared love of France and football.
If your chapter hasn't hosted a watch party yet, there's still time in the tournament to bring your community together. Reach out to your local chapter to find out where the next match is being shown, and come cheer with us.
Allez les Bleus! 🇫🇷
