The World Cup will be an unprecedented business
As part of the 2023-26 plan, the tournament organization has a budget of $3756 million and a forecast of revenue of about $13 billion.
The 2026 World Cupis underway, with the largest number of participants in its history — 48 countries — and 104 more games than ever before.
All of this will make 2026 the biggest tournament ever. The organizers have a budget of $ 3756 million and a forecast of revenue of about $13 billion.
FIFA, under the leadership of Gianni Infantino, has made a big bet to open the World Cup and take it to an unprecedented stage.
The 2026 tournament will be organised by the United States, Mexico and Canada. It will be the first to be held between three countries, not the last, since by 2030 Spain, Morocco and Portugal will take over the organization.
Beyond sporting influence,FIFA will turnthe 2026 World Cup into an unprecedented business. As we said, within the 2023-26 plan, the organization has a budget of $3756 million.
On the other hand, the tournament has forecast revenue of $13 billion, mostly linked to the World Cup. In addition, FIFA expects to break all records with the sale of television rights, sponsorship, tickets and hospitality services.
Map of the World Championships
The games will be played in 16 venues — 11 in the United States, 3 in Mexico and 2 in Canada.
As in the 1994 US Championship, next year's competition will have venues far away from each other: Los Angeles and Boston, for example, with a distance of 4170 kilometers.
A major logistical challenge will therefore be geographical dispersion for both the fans and the media.
At the same time, the massive influx of visitors will boost tourism and the local economy in all host cities.
