“For over four decades, Budweiser has been part of the celebrations that define the FIFA World Cup™, be it on the pitch, in bars, or wherever fans come together,” said Richard Oppy, Global President, Premium Company at AB InBev. “‘Let It Pour’ is our invitation to consumers to fully embrace those moments. Alongside Erling Haaland and Jürgen Klopp, we’re able to bring that energy to life in a way that connects with consumers across the globe.”

To launch “Let It Pour,” Budweiser partnered with one of the most dominant and recognizable players in football, Erling Haaland. Known for his record-breaking performances and relentless style of play, Haaland will make his FIFA World Cup™ debut in 2026 and is encouraging fans to share in the excitement.

“In my first FIFA World Cup, I’ll be leaving everything on the pitch, so Budweiser’s ‘Let It Pour’ campaign really hits home because it reflects exactly how I feel heading into the tournament,” said Erling Haaland, Budweiser global ambassador. “I’ve dreamed of representing my country on this stage my entire life, and now that it’s here, it’s an incredible honor. What makes it even more special is knowing fans around the world will be experiencing those same moments alongside us - sharing in the energy, the emotion, and letting it all pour out in a way that makes the FIFA World Cup unforgettable.”

Budweiser also partnered with Jürgen Klopp, one of football’s most electrifying figures, to amplify the call to come together and experience the intensity that defines the tournament.

“The FIFA World Cup inspires optimism and unmatched passion for every person watching, and to share that with fans around the world is truly remarkable,” said Jürgen Klopp, Budweiser global ambassador. “I’ve lived it, so partnering with Budweiser and being part of the ‘Let it Pour’ campaign is about capturing that feeling of when fans come together, share the moment, and celebrate what makes football so special.”

Expanding the Celebration Through Exclusive Global Experiences

Building on its 40-year legacy as the Official Beer Sponsor of the FIFA World Cup™, Budweiser continues to elevate the fan experience with the unveiling of The Bud Fan Store. Available online in select markets, consumers will be able to purchase or win exclusive, tournament-inspired merchandise. From a number 26 Budweiser football kit to a FIFA World Cup 2026™ windbreaker with the iconic bowtie emblem, every piece of apparel is designed to bring fans closer to the action.

Extending the impact of “Let It Pour,” Budweiser is launching Bud FC, a global experiential platform in partnership with WINK. In select markets, Bud FC will bring football fans together at FIFA World Cup 2026™ festivals worldwide, turning every moment throughout the tournament into a shared outpouring of passion and celebration. By channeling the energy of the stadium, Bud FC creates a new stage for consumers to celebrate together.

Budweiser Showcases the Raw Emotion of Football

Budweiser’s “Let It Pour” platform, created in partnership with Grey Global, invites fans to let their memories, emotions, and beer pour. Inspired by the energy of football fandom shared across the globe, “Let It Pour” captures how that passion spills beyond the pitch - turning bars, homes, and cities into a shared celebration over 39 days. It shows how the world comes together, and strangers become teammates as they cheer on their team with a Budweiser or Budweiser 0.0% in hand.

The creative features a star-studded cast, including Haaland and Klopp, alongside cameo appearances from football legend - and Erling’s father - Alfie Haaland, and other cultural icons who join in the celebrations. Set to the iconic track “Feelin’ Alright” by Joe Cocker, the film is supported by a full suite of TV, social, and out-of-home assets.
