FIFA Women’s World Cup 202 Bid Evaluation Report published – two bids submitted

Following a thorough assessment of each bid, including inspection visits to the bidding countries, today FIFA published the Bid Evaluation Report in respect of the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027™.

Based on the findings of the report approved by the Bid Evaluation Task Force, the following two bids have met the minimum hosting requirements:

Joint bid by the Royal Belgian Football Association, the German Football Association and the Royal Netherlands Football Association

Single bid by the Brazilian Football Association

In accordance with the voting procedure, both bids will be submitted to the 74th FIFA Congress that will convene on 17 May in Bangkok in order for FIFA’s 211 member associations to decide on the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027 host(s) through an open vote.

The Bid Evaluation Report reflects the comprehensive evaluation model that has become a hallmark of FIFA’s enhanced bidding processes for men’s and women’s flagship events, which incorporates a variety of criteria, ranging from event vision and key metrics, infrastructure, services, commercial aspects, and sustainability and human rights.

In March 2023 FIFA launched the most robust and comprehensive bidding process in the history of the FIFA Women’s World Cup™, with the Congress expected to appoint, for the first time ever, the host(s) of the 2027 edition on 17 May 2024.

The process for the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2027™ maintains all key elements from the successful FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023™ bidding process, such as the publication of key content and documentation, the inclusion of robust rules of conduct and the implementation of a comprehensive evaluation model. 

In addition, the 2027 process has been further enhanced to include new elements.
