# Mexico–United States 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup bid

The Mexico–United States 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup bid is a joint bid to host the 2027 FIFA Women's World Cup by the soccer associations of Mexico and the United States. The bid was announced on April 19, 2023.

## Background

Before his resignation in 2017, former U.S. Soccer president Carlos Cordeiro expressed an interest in having the U.S. host the tournament, stating "I believe we can and should host the FIFA Women's World Cup in 2027." However, it was not known where current president Cindy Parlow Cone could have stood on a possible bid. If successful, the U.S. would host the Women's World Cup one year after co-hosting the 2026 FIFA World Cup and one year before Los Angeles hosts the Summer Olympics again. The United States has previously hosted the 1994 FIFA World Cup and this tournament twice in a row in 1999 and 2003. It was reported on August 6, 2021, that U.S. Soccer was considering a bid for the 2031 Women's World Cup as an alternative before reinstating its plan for 2027 on June 17, 2022.
On June 21, 2022, the president of the Mexican Football Federation, Yon de Luisa, announced interests in hosting the 2027 edition and would seek to make a bid for it. Mexico has never hosted a FIFA Women's World Cup, but has hosted the men's World Cup twice, in 1970 and 1986, and will do so again as joint host for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. A joint bid between the United States and Mexico was announced on April 19, 2023, prior to a friendly match between the men's teams.

## FIFA football tournament hosting experiences
