ICE personnel may be present at World Cup matches as part of an offer to provide perimeter security alongside local police departments and federal agencies. The role is described as similar to what ICE has done at the Super Bowl and the Kentucky Derby.<\/span>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;What makes someone a target for immigration enforcement is whether or not they are illegally in the U.S. -full stop.&#8221; &#8211; DHS Spokesperson, May 2026<\/span>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DHS also stated directly that ICE officers working stadium security will not be checking spectators or employees for immigration status.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, a critical detail has been widely reported: no internal guidance has gone out instructing ICE officers to avoid making immigration arrests at World Cup venues. The two roles, security support and independent enforcement, have not been formally separated.<\/span>\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ICE Acting Director Todd Lyons said in February 2026 that the agency would play a &#8220;key part&#8221; in World Cup security, framing it similarly to its role at other major U.S. sporting events.
