England 2018 submit bid book to FIFA

• Selected Candidate Host Cities and their final bid submission will form an essential component of the Technical Bid Book around which England’s bid will be built

• In order to produce the best technical bid possible, there is a substantial amount of work to be done by England 2018 once the Cities have been selected and the final May deadline is not moveable

• England 2018 cannot announce Candidate Host Cities until all documentation has been received

• Failure to submit the agreements in accordance with these deadlines will mean that the Applicant Host City is excluded from the process going forward

FIFA World Cup Staging – Financial Overview

• FIFA accrue all revenue generated from hosting the World Cup except for specific revenues allocated to Host Cities

– FIFA Fan Fest sponsorship and hospitality

– Rental income for use of the stadium

• No revenue accrues to the LOC with the LOC costs being funded in their entirety by FIFA

– Over and above the LOC expenditure budget, FIFA will agree a profit or surplus amount of money with the LOC; the surplus will be used for football surplus amount of money with the LOC; the surplus will be used for football development-related projects

• The expenditure budget agreed by FIFA will exclude all capital costs relating to stadiums as well as those costs detailed in the host city agreements and central government guarantees

• England 2018 requested a stadium use agreement from FIFA, FIFA responded by stating that the stadium use agreement would only be available in 2012 and provided a sample agreement from the 2011 Women’s World Cup in Germany

• This has been reviewed by England 2018’s legal advisers and is inadequate as essential information will only be provided by FIFA in 2011. England 2018 will therefore confirm stadium remuneration by way of a covering letter to contracting parties.

There are some direct income opportunities for certain stakeholders

• FIFA have stated there will be an opportunity for host cities to generate income :

– Sponsorship at FIFA Fan Fests

– Hospitality at FIFA Fan Fests

• FIFA believe Fan Fests could break even on the above revenue model

Host Cities

• Stadium rental of c.10-15% net ticket revenue to be negotiated with each stadium

• Net ticket revenue from the 2010 World Cup in South Africa is expected to total approximately $400m for 64 games; adjusting for inflation and market conditions, net revenue at an England 2018 World Cup could be considerably higher

Stadium Owners

• Training site rental and compliance funded by the LOC

Economic Impact

• An independent review of the Economic Impact of Hosting the 2018 FIFA World Cup in England has been conducted by PriceWaterhouseCoopers (PWC)

• The nationwide study was then broken down to Host City level using a series of key parameters

• England 2018 sent to this breakdown Applicant Host Cities; it is a broad tool to enable Cities to calculate their own economic impact based on their aspirations as a Cityas a City

• This report indicated a minimum economic impact of £130m; applicant Host Cities were encouraged to make their own assessment and many have commissioned their own report

• England 2018 issued the total Economic Impact Report on 8 September 2009; these figures reflect a total incremental spend of £5.3 billion associated with hosting the World Cup with a £3.2 billion impact on GDP

• The Economic Impact Assessment is based on our provisional plans and will be revised during 2010 once the Candidate Host Cities have been selected and detailed costs have been refined

excitement has really lifted spirits in Cologne. This

feeling of community, of achieving something

important together as a team will have a lasting

effect on all of us” boost, and our citizens can now have a real sense

of pride . This was the biggest and most

impressive way of advertising the region we

could have imagined, and the tourism industry will

reap the rewards from it in the years to come”

Dr. Ulrich Maly, Mayor of Nuremberg

that hosting the tournament brought with it a 150m

the arm to the local economy and ensuring long

term benefits for our city”

Bernard J Deubig, Mayor of Kaiserslautern

Fritz Schramma, Mayor of Cologne

• “Around a million people came to the Fan Fest in

atmosphere. This has made a lasting positive

contribution to the city’s image…”
