The latest list of Team Base Camp options for FIFA World Cup 2026™ has been published
14 new options added for qualified and aspiring national teams to consider as possible “homes away from home”
Further options to come online throughout 2025 ahead of the tournament’s Final Draw
FIFA has released the third wave of potential Team Base Camps in preparation for the FIFA World Cup 2026™, offering participating teams a variety of “homes away from home” for the tournament. A Team Base Camp is a training site and accommodation pairing that will serve as the primary base for teams during the group stage, where they will train, rest and prepare for their matches.
Following the release of the first and second editions in June and November 2024 respectively, the latest update sees 14 new Team Base Camp options come online, including three in FIFA World Cup 2026 Host Cities and 11 in cities outside of – yet still geographically connected to – the locations where matches at the historic tournament will be played. In FIFA World Cup™ Host Cities, options have been added in Guadalajara (Mexico) as well as Dallas – Mansfield and New York New Jersey (United States), while the vast footprint of the inclusive event has been expanded with the addition of options in Querétaro and Torreón in Mexico, plus Boca Raton, Greenbrier County, Myrtle Beach, Oklahoma City (2), Portland, Santa Barbara (2) and State College in the United States.
Team Base Camp options for FIFA World Cup 2026™
The latest update to the Team Base Camp brochure brings the total number of options for qualified and aspiring national teams to consider as the build-up to the first-ever 48 nation FIFA World Cup continues to 62. Teams will submit their final selections following the Final Draw for the FIFA World Cup 26™. The draw, anticipated to be staged in December 2025, will reveal the geographic zones in which teams will play their group matches, further guiding their decisions regarding their respective Team Base Camp locations.
