Big news from our neighbors over in Orlando! The Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) recently announced the 11 cities and 12 venues that will host matches during the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup . Inter&Co Stadium and Camping World Stadium in Orlando are both set to welcome competition as the 32-team tournament makes its U.S. debut next summer.
Known as “The City Beautiful,” Orlando was recently named the nation’s number one city for hosting events by Sports Business Journal. The city acts as a host for premier competition, including flagship soccer events on both the club and federation levels.
Orlando will be the only 2025 FIFA Club World Cup host city with tournament matches in multiple venues.
The FIFA Club World Cup will be the largest stand-alone global club football event ever staged in the U.S. and globally, with the best 32 clubs worldwide participating. The tournament will kick off on Sunday, June 15, 2025, with the final stop being MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday, July 13, 2025, where the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 will be played.
“We are thrilled to welcome the FIFA Club World Cup to both of our Downtown stadiums next summer,” said Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, “Events like these solidify our city’s reputation for hosting world-class competitions and offering unforgettable experiences, and we look forward to working with our community partners to put Orlando’s best foot forward for fans, top clubs and FIFA delegates from around the globe.”
