The 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup will not be coming to North America.
U.S. Soccer and the Mexican Football Federation have withdrawn their join bid to host the competition, both federations announced Monday. Both federations will instead focus on obtaining the hosting rights for the 2031 Women’s World Cup.
“Hosting a World Cup tournament is a huge undertaking — and having additional time to prepare allows us to maximize its impact across the globe,” U.S. Soccer president Cindy Parlow Cone said in a statement.
“I’m proud of our commitment to provide equitable experiences for the players, fans and all our stakeholders,” she added. “Shifting our bid will enable us to host a record-breaking Women’s World Cup in 2031 that will help to grow and raise the level of the women’s game both here at home as well as across the globe.”
The U.S.-Mexico joint bid was one of three finalists for the 2027 World Cup alongside Brazil and a joint bid from Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands. The FIFA Congress are set to vote on the 2027 host on May 17 in Thailand.
48 teams are planning to feature in the 2027 Women’s World Cup, which would be the largest tournament field in the history of the competition. If the U.S. and Mexico did host the 2027 edition, it would come one year after both countries, along with Canada, would’ve hosted the 2026 Men’s World Cup.
“The strength and universality of our professional women’s leagues, coupled with our experience from organizing the 2026 World Cup, means that we will be able to provide the best infrastructure as well as an enthusiastic fan base that will make all the participating teams feel at home and to put together a World Cup that will contribute to the continued growth of women’s football,” Mexican Football Federation president Ivar Sisniega said.
The United States had previously hosted the Women’s World Cup in 1999 and 2003.
