Foxboro town leaders have unanimously approved the entertainment license needed for the FIFA World Cup games at Gillette Stadium in June. The Foxboro Select Board and World Cup organizers had been arguing over where the $7.8 million for adequate security measures would come from, with Foxboro claiming taxpayers would not be responsible for funding the international event. Boston Soccer 2026 is stepping in to provide the advance funding. The town will be paid within one business day to Foxboro's payroll and other expenses as they may arise. Kraft Sports + Entertainment has also agreed to advance the money needed to pay the town.
