North America to Hold the 2026 FIFA World Cup

June 13, 2018

Delegates of Canada, Mexico and the United States celebrate after winning a joint bid to host the 2026 World Cup at the FIFA congress in Moscow, Russia, Wednesday, June 13, 2018.

North American officials have promised to deliver $14 billion in revenue from the event. Preparation for the World Cup will not require major construction work because the 16 stadiums where matches will be played already exist.

Canada will host men’s World Cup matches for the first time. Mexico last held the event in 1986, while the U.S. held the World Cup in 1994.
