FIFA Reveals Official Team Base Camp Sites for 2026 World Cup
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is still weeks away but the groundwork is already set.
FIFA has confirmed the base camp locations for all 48 nations competing in the tournament, which runs from June 11 through July 19. While matches will be played across 16 host cities, another 25 communities spread across the United States, Mexico, and Canada will serve as home bases for national teams throughout the competition.
The United States is hosting the bulk of the field, with 39 nations choosing to base themselves there. Seven teams will be stationed in Mexico, and two teams picked Canada for the group stage.
These camps are more than just hotels. They'll function as each nation's day-to-day headquarters where players, coaches, and staff prepare, recover, and travel for matches across North America.
