US and Mexico plan to co-host 2027 Women’s World Cup

The United States and Mexico have informed FIFA they are to submit a bid to co-host the 2027 Women’s World Cup, the countries’ federations said on Wednesday.

USSF and FMF have to formally submit their proposal by May 19. Last time the US hosted the Women’s World Cup was in 1999, when they won the second of their record four titles, and in 2003.

“The United States has always been a global leader for the women’s game, and we would be honoured to co-host the world’s premier event for women’s soccer along with Mexico,” said USSF President Cindy Parlow Cone.

Mexico, the U.S. and Canada will also co-host the men’s World Cup in the summer of 2026.
