Official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Host City Poster
The dynamic and visually striking design, by Toronto-based illustrator Dave Murray, will represent Toronto on the global stage, capturing the energy and passion that define both the city and the world’s most popular sporting event. This is the first time that a FIFA World Cup™ has included posters specific to each Host City. All posters will be available for purchase from April 19.

Murray is an illustrator and artist based in Toronto’s west-end. With more than a decade of experience, his work has appeared in top publications and brands worldwide. Known for his bold colours, dynamic motion and sharp geometry, Murray’s style blends modern influences with cubism, deco and futurism.
His design emphasizes the grandeur and energy of the FIFA World Cup™ with a larger-than-life player in motion, proudly wearing a red maple leaf. The grid background represents the lines on a soccer pitch, as well as Toronto’s streets and the idea of a quilt to reflect the collection of wonderful and vibrant people and neighbourhoods that come together to make us “the world in a city.”
Additional nods to the city include Toronto’s iconic shoreline forming the edge of the “pitch,” the blue colour palette of Toronto’s flag and positioning the soccer ball over Toronto Stadium.
