Goal! 3D Printing for the 2026 FIFA World Cup

The 2026 FIFA World Cup officially kicked off in Mexico City on June 11th. It’s the largest FIFA tournament in history, with 48 teams competing over 104 matches. Instead of just one host country, like Qatar or Brazil, this year’s World Cup is being played at locations across the three host countries of Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. On June 16th, the tournament’s all-time daily attendance record was broken, with 281,223 fans in the stands for the France v. Senegal, Iraq v. Norway, Argentina v. Algeria, and Austria v. Jordan matches; the previous daily record of 277,070, was set all the way back in June of 1994.

Tiara Croatia 

This “football fan headband” design by Pinshape user DarMar is perfect for the Croatia fan in your life. It’s a print that’s perfect for beginners, with no supports required and an optional brim. The recommended layer height is 0.20 mm, with a 10-15% infill. It’s optimized for two colors, with the headband itself and the lettering on top separated by height, which will make it simple to use a multi-material printer or add a filament change at the appropriate layer.

“Show your Croatian pride at football matches, watch parties, festivals, and sporting events with this eye-catching Croatia Fan Tiara! Featuring bold raised letters spelling CROATIA and a soccer ball accent, this lightweight headband is designed to stand out in the crowd while remaining comfortable to wear.”

World Cup National Team Logos

Thingiverse user SteveOst created designs for national soccer team logos that can be 3D printed as emblems, or for the flag on your mailbox. He currently has USMNT, MNST, and CNFT, and is working on other team logos, which he will post when ready.

World Cup Logo Fidget Clickers, Clicky Toy Keychain

If you like a good clicky fidget, then you’ll definitely want one of these team logo clickers from MyMiniFactory user Clickify 3D! Designed as tactile desk toys and keychain accessories, these compact fidget clickers feature a variety of national team logos, plus a miniature version of the World Cup on top. They were designed for mechanical keyboard switches, like the Kailh Box White V2, and the 3MF files have been pre-configured, so all you need to do is slice and print. These don’t need any supports, and are compatible with 2.4mm ball chains if you want to turn yours into a keychain.

“Pick your flag. Then try not to press it.”

Spiral World Cup Fidget

Speaking of 3D printable fidgets, I love this spiraling World Cup by Thingerse user 3dmonios. It’s a print-in-place model, no assembly required, with a fully rotating spiral structure that I would never stop playing with. The recommended layer height is 0.2 mm, and while you don’t need supports, you might want to use a brim if your printer ha
