The World Cup party continues in Downtown Atlanta.
The FIFA Fan Festival at Centennial Olympic Park is opening for an additional day Thursday as thousands of soccer fans are expected to gather for Team USA's final group stage match against Turkey at 10 p.m.
With a Round of 32 spot already clinched after two wins, the Americans have won Group D regardless of tonight's outcome. But positioning for the knockout round remains at stake, and the atmosphere promises to be electric.
The day's slate begins with Curacao facing Ivory Coast at 4 p.m. on FS1, followed by Ecuador versus Germany at 7 p.m. on FOX 5. World Cup coverage from Atlanta has dominated the airwaves since the tournament kicked off.
SCAD students have been instrumental in bringing the World Cup to life visually. Hundreds of students helped design directional signage throughout downtown, created new public art installations, and are managing social media content throughout the tournament.
Meanwhile, watch parties continue across Midtown, Decatur Square, and neighborhood bars throughout the metro.
