The decision and the format
On 4 October 2023, the FIFA Council designated the joint Morocco-Spain-Portugal bid as host of the 2030 World Cup, confirmed by the FIFA Congress in December 2024. Three opening matches will be played in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay for the competition's centenary.
Morocco has put forward six stadiums in six cities: the Grand Stade Hassan II in Benslimane near Casablanca (115,000 seats, under construction), the Moulay Abdellah complex in Rabat (68,700), Tangier (75,600), Fez (55,800), Marrakech (45,860) and Agadir (46,000). Capacities are those of the bid book and official announcements; they may be adjusted during the works.
