After 1970 and 1986, Mexico becomes the first nation to host or co-host three editions of the FIFA World Cup.
Mexico previously hosted in 1970 and 1986, both as sole host. In 2026 it returns as a co-host alongside the United States and Canada.
Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, Estadio Akron in Guadalajara and Estadio BBVA in Monterrey will share 13 matches.
The country's footballing history, climate and stadium infrastructure make it a cornerstone of the expanded tournament.
