VOX ATL teamed up with the Centre for Sport and Human Rights’ Generation 2026 Youth Leadership Council to capture Atlanta teens’ thoughts about the 2026 FIFA World Cup at ATL SoccerFest, and we were fortunate to have a sit-down with Mayor Andre Dickens.
Here, Mayor Dickens speaks with Destiny-Joy Sagay from Generation 2026 about FIFA’s impact on the city and how events like SoccerFest align with his administration’s goal of providing positive community engagement activities for teens.
Hosted by Mayor Andre Dickens’ Office of Cultural Affairs at Mozley Park on June 13, ATL SoccerFest included a soccer tournament, an adaptive sports demonstration, music, and more.
