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'sfootball championship contested by the national teams of the member associations of FIFA. The tournament will involve 32 national teams, including that of the host nation, after FIFA announced the expansion of the tournament in July 2019.[1]Spain are the defending champions, having won their first title in 2023.
On 24 November 2023, South Africa announced they were withdrawing from the race to host the competition, choosing to instead focus on submitting a bid for the 2031 FIFA Women's World Cup in the future.[4]
On 8 December 2023, the three remaining interested bids were submitted to FIFA.
The short timeline for host selection, with the winning bid awarded three years before the tournament begins, has been compared to the longer timelines for the men's World Cup. During the 2027 selection process, the hosts of the 2030 and 2034 editions of the men's World Cup were confirmed by FIFA.[5]
Formatedit
The Women's World Cup, since the 2023 edition, opens with a group stage consisting of eight groups of four teams, with the top two teams progressing from each group to a knockout tournament starting with a round of 16 teams. The number of games played overall is 64.
