Fourteen New Team Base Camp Options for FIFA 2026 World Cup Added

FIFA has released its latest set of Team Base Camp options for the 2026 World Cup with a total of 62 options now available across three countries with the vast majority of them in the United States.

Wednesday’s announcement added another 14 options from which the 48 participating teams may opt to establish the hub from where they will travel to their first three matches and where players, staff and officials will spend the majority of their time during the group stage.

Options have been added in Guadalajara (Mexico) as well as Dallas and New York New Jersey, while the footprint has been expanded with the addition of options in Querétaro and Torreón in Mexico, plus Boca Raton, Florida; Greenbrier County, West Virginia; Myrtle Beach, South Carolina; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Portland, Oregon; Santa Barbara, California, and State College, Pennsylvania.

Of the 11 U.S. cities that will host matches in the World Cup, four — Miami, Boston, Los Angeles, Bay Area and Seattle — will not have base camp options although there are multiple options near those region. There are no base camp options in Canada but nine in Mexico.

Teams will submit their selections for base camps following the Final Draw in December 2025, with teams picking base camp locations in accordance with their FIFA world ranking.

One of the factors that teams will consider in selecting a base camp is where it will have its matches. The United States will play two group-stage games in Los Angeles and one in Seattle.

One proposed base camp listed earlier in the brochure was Green Bay, Wisconsin, but the destination is not listed under Wednesday’s update.
