As excitement builds for the summer of soccer happening this month at Levi’s Stadium, we're reminding fans to help keep the experience safe and enjoyable for everyone.
Plan ahead and arrive early. Give yourself extra time for traffic, parking, and security screening.
If you see something, say something. Stay aware of your surroundings and report suspicious activity to law enforcement.
In an emergency, call 9-1-1. For non-emergency assistance in Mountain View, call (650) 903-6344.
Arrive home safely. Make a plan before you celebrate, designate a sober driver, use a rideshare service, or arrange another safe ride home.
Whether you're heading to a match, a watch party, or a fan event, let's work together to make this an unforgettable and safe World Cup experience. Enjoy the matches and play it safe!

Last week @MountainViewGov celebrated #PublicWorksWeek and I am excited to join the first public open house this Wednesday. See you there!
What do big trucks and shaved ice have in common? You'll find them both (along with other cool stuff that makes our city work) at the Public Works Open House.
This free special event is happening at the City's Municipal Operations Center on Wednesday, May 27. See you there 🚚

This Memorial Day, we take time to reflect and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and commitment to something greater than themselves have helped preserve the freedoms we hold dear today.
From all of us at the Mountain View Police Department, we remember with gratitude those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and we extend our deepest respect to the families who continue to carry their legacy forward.

Such a great morning yesterday supporting the @SONorCal with @MountainViewGov and @MountainViewPD #LawEnforcementTorchRun
The Mountain View Police Department is excited to have taken part in the 2026 Torch Run, championing the incredible athletes of Special Olympics and embracing the values of inclusion, bravery, and community.
This year, for the first time, we were proud to feature a dedicated walking route through beautiful Downtown Mountain View, bringing more of our community together in a meaningful and visible way.
Each stride we take in this event empowers these athletes to pursue their dreams and reinforces our commitment to serving with compassion. Together, we can illuminate the path for these remarkable individuals. Let’s shine a light on the spirit of Special Olympics Northern California!
