United States and Concacaf partners to host 2031 FIFA Women’s World Cup

FIFA announced at the 2025 UEFA Congress that the United States and Concacaf Partners are the sole bid to host the 2031 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
“As part of the bidding process we received one bid for ‘31 and one valid bid for ‘35. The ‘31 bid is from the United States of America, and potentially some other Concacaf members together,” FIFA President Gianni Infantino said during his address at the Congress.
U.S. Soccer has issued a statement in response to the FIFA announcement: “We are excited about the opportunity to co-host the 2031 FIFA Women’s World Cup and, in collaboration with our Concacaf partners, are committed to delivering a tournament that leaves a lasting legacy – one that elevates women’s soccer across the world and inspires future generations of players and fans.
“As FIFA finalizes the number of participating teams in the tournament, we will solidify our partnership structure with fellow Concacaf nations. We look forward to sharing more details and unveiling our full vision for the 2031 FIFA Women’s World Cup in the near future.”
This will be the third time the U.S. has hosted a Women’s World Cup, and fifth World Cup overall, including next year’s Men’s World Cup. In 1994 the United States held the Men’s World Cup for the first time, four years later the Americans hosted the 1999 Women’s World Cup, when the USA won a historic tournament that broke attendance and viewing records. They hosted the Women’s World Cup again in 2003, when the competition was moved from China PR.
The U.S. Women’s National Team has won four Women’s World Cups (1991, 1999, 2015, 2019).
