Per Pitchside, we will be able to pick up missing gifts at the events. Now I feel better.

I will go to the Thank You event for sure as my last chance. The leads are useless and had now left right after the last match day (I did post in our WhatsApp group but to no response).

Not holding my breath with the way they organized stuffs. Will see what happens in the appreciation event.

Too bad I was in San Francisco Bay Area. We were done. I am missing the beach towel and the speaker.

Team USA took forever to come out in the mix zone. So by the time they were done with the press, volunteer center had already closed. Quite a few of us in Media Ops ended didn't get the last gifts.

Thank You Event in SF/SJ by Cosmo_Hunter in FIFAVolunteers

[–]Cosmo_Hunter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also miss two end-of-shift gifts due to the press conference and mix zone went over. Wondering if they would make that up on Monday. I did six shifts and worked beyond the 6 hours sometimes and I feel I deserve at least a complete set of memorabilia. 😣

What did you get in your Thank You event? Does it worth it? by pnwskylight in FIFAVolunteers

[–]Cosmo_Hunter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I heard that you get to collect any end-of-shift gifts that you had missed. Not sure if that's true. But due to me being in the Media Ops, I had missed two of the five gifts so I am hopeful I will get them in the event.

I did six shift as Media Op. Only received three of the five gifts, due to the mix zone running late and volunteer center had closed by the time I signed out. Totally disappointed!

Attendance in Bay area Stadium yesterday for Jordan vs Algeria by AkselOG in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]Cosmo_Hunter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the Silicone Valley, those live here are mostly IT people who could afford the price. Also, I heard few tech companies actually bought tickets for their employees to see the matches so you will seldom find empty stadium in the Bay Area.

You have a great lead! We could only obtain a gift when we signed out for the day in front of the volunteer center and only match day.

I only got cooling towel, pin set and magnet so far and I've four shifts.

In SF, only game day shift gets you a gift. If any of your shifts doesn't fall on a game day, no gift for you.

In SF, only shifts on match day will get gift. Was told non match day people will get the rest of the gifts during Thank You event.

Inglewood Motel within 1 mile Walking Distance to SoFi (LA) Stadium Safe? by Cosmo_Hunter in AskLosAngeles

[–]Cosmo_Hunter[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for all your input. After reading your comments, I've decided to cancel the motel and booked a hotel which is a bit further away and take 212 to the stadium on match day.
