North Texas Law Enforcement Officers Meet Ahead of World Cup

North Texas law enforcement partners met up to coordinate operations ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026 events coming to the region this month.

The Dallas Police Department posted photos of the law enforcement meet-up to social media.

According to the post, Dallas Police Chief Daniel C. Comeaux and members of the department's executive team met with regional law enforcement leaders from across North Texas on Wednesday.

The law enforcement representatives met up to discuss collaboration and coordinated planning for the FIFA World Cup.

"As we prepare to welcome thousands of visitors, [our] goal is simple: Keep the entire North Texas region safe, secure, and ready for a world-class event," the post states. "Strong partnerships and regional coordination are key to ensuring a successful experience for residents and visitors alike."

Last week, the City of Dallas revealed that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency would be flying an aircraft at low altitudes to survey the areas over Fair Park/Cotton Bowl and downtown Dallas on June 3.

That is just one of the preparations regional law enforcement agencies are taking ahead of the nine FIFA World Cup 2026 matches the city is scheduled to host at Dallas Stadium starting on June 14.

Those matches include five group stage games, knockout rounds, and a semi-final to be held on July 14. According to FIFA, the Statue of Liberty could fit inside the Dallas Stadium with the roof closed.
