The D.C. Council has passed an emergency resolution to allow city bars to stay open 24 hours a day during the Women's World Cup being held in Australia and New Zealand later this summer.
The bill, proposed by At-Large Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie, mirrors a similar move made by city officials in 2022 for the Men’s World Cup held in Qatar.
Bars planning to extend their legal operating hours will be required to pay a $100 registration fee to the D.C. Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Administration and notify the Metropolitan Police Department of their plans to stay open later by July 17.
