The FIFA 2030 World Cup is set to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the competition in three major host countries and three heritage games played in Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
The 2030 FIFA World Cup, which will mark the 100th anniversary of FIFA and soccer’s biggest event, will be hosted jointly by three nations spanning two continents: Morocco, Portugal, and Spain. Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, in particular, will play a special role in the 2030 World Cup, honoring the centennial of the tournament’s inaugural edition held in Uruguay.
The opening match, alongside a centenary celebration, will take place at the iconic Estadio Centenario in Montevideo, where the first World Cup final was held. Subsequent matches will be spread across Argentina and Paraguay, culminating in the main event across all six host cities in Morocco, Portugal, and Spain.
It will be the second time Argentina and Uruguay have hosted World Cup matches, in 1978 and 1930 respectively; it will be the second time Spain has been a host country and marks the first time Paraguay, Morocco, and Portugal have hosted the tournament.
