On the Plaza, the upper level of the Central Parking Lot at 4706 Central Street will be transformed into the Plaza Pitch. It'll be a gathering space featuring a turf field for lawn games and pick-up soccer matches, for families and visitors to relax, gather, and enjoy the Plaza together. Check it out Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. There will also be live music, pop ups, retail and more. It's free and open to the public.
In Independence, the Uptown Market is hosting Soccer Saturdays.

It's from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. this Saturday.
At Rock Island Bridge, they're also hosting a watch party on Saturday. But Friday night, there will be an Ecuadorian Welcome Party, of course all are welcome! It's a free family-friendly event from 7 to 9 p.m. at the bottom of the bridge, then the 18 and up ticketed party kicks off upstairs in the American Royal Hall at 9 p.m. For ticket information, you can head to Rock Island Bridge's website.
