The 2027 Women's World Cup will be hosted in Brazil from June 24 to July 25, featuring eight venues previously used in the men's 2014 World Cup. This tournament will be the last with 32 teams before the expansion to 48 teams in 2031, with Brazil already qualified as the host nation.
Current champions Spain, who won their first title in 2023, are among the four European teams that have secured direct qualification. The remaining teams will compete in play-offs scheduled for late 2026 to fill the remaining spots in the tournament.
As Brazil prepares to host the Women's World Cup, fans should monitor the play-offs in late 2026, where teams like England and the Republic of Ireland will vie for a spot. The tournament's legacy may influence future investments in women's football infrastructure in Brazil.
