FIFA ANNOUNCES HOST COUNTRIES FOR THE WORLD CUP 2030 AND 2034

The 2030 tournament will celebrate the centenary of the World Cup with a unique format. The opening matches will be held in Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay, marking the tournament’s 100th anniversary. The remaining games will take place in Morocco, Portugal, and Spain, who are the primary hosts. This will be the first time the World Cup spans three continents.

The 2034 World Cup will be hosted by Saudi Arabia, making it the first World Cup held solely in the country. Saudi Arabia was the only bidder for the event and aims to deliver a world-class tournament while showcasing its growing sports infrastructure. The event is expected to take place in the summer despite the region’s extreme heat, though FIFA may implement cooling technologies. 

These decisions highlight FIFA’s global vision for inclusivity and celebration of football’s rich history.
