The 2038 FIFA World Cup will be the 26th FIFA World Cup, a quadrennial international football tournament contested by the men's national teams of the member associations of FIFA.
Host selection[edit]
The bidding to host the 2038 FIFA World Cup has yet to start. Only countries from CONCACAF and OFC are eligible to host this World Cup as UEFA, CAF, and CONMEBOL will host 2030, while AFC will host 2034.
Bids[edit]
The bidding process for this World Cup has yet to start, nor has any information come out about how the bidding process will work. However, if FIFA's confederation exclusion process is still used for 2038, it is likely only North America and Oceania are allowed to host; South America, Europe and Africa can't bid due to the agreement to host the 2030 World Cup in Spain, Portugal and Morocco with the tournament due to open with celebratory games in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. Asia will be ineligible due to Saudi Arabia hosting the 2034 World Cup.
It has been speculated that the 2026 FIFA World Cup hosts (United States, Canada, Mexico) might host again either together or separately, possibly making Mexico the first country to host the tournament four times, and/or the United States the second country to host the World Cup three times.[1]
Thai Minister of Tourism Sermsak Pongpanich raised the possibility of Thailand bidding to host the 2038 World Cup.[2]
Potential bids such as Ghana and a joint ASEAN bid were mulled before Asian and African countries were deemed ineligible for the 2038 edition.[3][4]
