Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. was in attendance for Fanatics Fest NYC 2026. During his coverage, a standout activation for fans was NFL Flag Football, which continues to be the fastest-growing sport, with support from every team, especially the Kansas City Chiefs.
The NFL Flag Championships, the world's premier youth flag football tournament, will take place July 23-26 in Westfield, Indiana. The NFL Flag Championships will welcome more than 350 girls' and boys' teams from across the United States and around the globe for four days of competition. The Chiefs have been at the forefront in promoting the importance of flag football to youth, especially among young girls.
A record 30 games will air across ESPN, ABC, ESPN2, NFL Network, ESPN Deportes, Disney Channel and Disney XD — the most extensive linear coverage in event history.
As part of the NFL activation at Fanatics Fest NYC 2026 last weekend, fans could participate in the interactive flag-pulling wall among the many league experiences.
Fanatics Fest NYC 2026 was held over four days at the Javits Center in New York City, featuring a curated lineup of top talent from sports and pop culture. The festival included exclusive merchandise and product drops, immersive league, team, and brand activations, autograph sessions, live panels, the largest hobby show in New York City, and more.
