Marketing
After being awarded hosting rights, the Florian Football Association shortly after unveiled the tournament logo. It features an abstract version of the globe on the left and modern text and FMF logo on the right. The tournament mascot was also unveiled shortly afterwards. Barry the Wolf, a wolf dressed in the colours of the Florian flag with a football in his right arm.
An opening ceremony is planned for the tournament and is likely to consist of nationalistic marches and forms of entertainment. For this tournament only, the controversial 'Traffic Light System' will be relaxed for the tournament allowing all fans and teams of the qualifying nations to enter the country without any restrictions as long they have a "Fan-Pass", the official ID pass for fans outside of Floria. For matches, Fan-Pass, a passport and a match ticket will be required to enter the stadium. Fan-Pass will grant travelling spectators free access to Floria's large public transportation systems such as bus, coach, metro and train between host cities. The official match ball of the World Cup was provided by Farrar Sports. Predominately white the ball also features strokes of red and black circles.
Each qualifying country would be given 16,245 "Follow Your Country" tickets (a concept introduced at the 2017 tournament), which will entitle fans to a Fan-Pass and tickets to each country's fixture in the tournament, including the final, should their team make it that far. The remaining tickets in the ground will be split 50%/50% between local fans and a general ballot sale.
Popular video game Pro Superstar Football released a free midseason DLC for the tournament. It included all official kits and player likenesses for all 20 qualified teams. The DLC also included all the venues of the tournament and the official match ball.
