He emphasizes the historical performance of both organizations, stating that this partnership is designed to forge a strong connection with the vibrant community of soccer enthusiasts.

Looking Ahead to 2026

The sponsorship is not just a one-time affair; it extends beyond 2025 through comprehensive promotional programs, sales activations, and media events, aiming to enhance the soccer experience for fans across North America. As we approach 2026, a year that promises significant opportunities for soccer, this partnership plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between fan passion and sporting excellence.

Together, we hope to create authentic and lasting connections through MexTour and MexTour W in the coming years."

The MexTour Phenomenon
