Confirmed: Spain, Portugal, Morocco to co-host 2030 World Cup, Saudi Arabia secures 2034
FIFA have officially confirmed that Spain, Portugal, and Morocco will co-host the 2030 FIFA World Cup, while Saudi Arabia will host the 2034 edition.
The 2030 edition will be a historic six-nation event, with Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay each hosting one match to celebrate the centenary of the inaugural World Cup in Uruguay in 1930.
The rest of the matches will take place across Spain, Portugal, and Morocco.
For the 2034 World Cup, Saudi Arabia emerged as the sole candidate, receiving unanimous approval during an online FIFA meeting led by President Gianni Infantino.
Saudi Arabia’s preparations for the tournament include massive investments in futuristic stadiums and facilities.
One of such is a 350-meter-high stadium in Neom and another atop a cliff near Riyadh.
