Stadium Levis dan World Cup

Salah sebuah stadium tang jadi tuan rumah World Cup ialah Stadium Levis di California. Oleh kerana Levis buka penaja World Cup maka Fifa amik keputusan nama Stadium Levis tak boleh ada dan mesti ditukar nama lain.

Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, is temporarily renamed the San Francisco Bay Area Stadium during the FIFA World Cup. This unbranding is due to FIFA's strict requirements that prohibit non-official sponsors from displaying corporate names within the venue.

The Fédération Internationale de Football Association, widely known as FIFA, requires all of the World Cup venues — a total of 16 this year across the U.S., Mexico and Canada — to strip corporate branding from the exterior and interiors as much as possible.

That means Levi’s Stadium is now officially known as San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, and anyone in or near the venue can see that the recognizable red batwing-style Levi’s logos have been covered tightly in white tarps.
