2027 FIFA Women's World Cup
Updated: 12/11/2025, 2:14:11 PM Wikipedia source
The 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup is scheduled to be the tenth edition of the FIFA Women's World Cup, the quadrennial international women's football championship contested by the national teams of the member associations of FIFA. The tournament will include 32 teams for the second time after FIFA announced the expansion of the tournament in July 2019. Spain are the defending champions, having won their first title in 2023. This will be the second and last edition of the tournament to be contested by 32 teams, with FIFA confirming an expansion to 48 teams for the next edition in 2031. On 17 May 2024, FIFA announced that Brazil won the hosting rights, making this the first FIFA Women's World Cup to be held in South America. Brazil will become the sixth country—after Sweden, the United States, Germany, France, and Canada—to host both the men's and women's World Cup, having hosted the former in 1950 and 2014. It is also the first country to host eight different FIFA competitions, having also hosted the 2016 Olympic football tournaments, the 2000 FIFA Club World Championship, the 2013 FIFA Confederations Cup, the 2019 FIFA U-17 World Cup, the 2008 FIFA Futsal World Cup, and the first three editions of the FIFA-organized Beach Soccer World Cup (2005, 2006, and 2007).
