Where the 2022 World Cup was given to a nation with virtually no existing stadium infrastructure, that wasn’t the case for 2023 with Australia and New Zealand.
They are ready to host on the biggest stage.
For just the second time in World Cup history — and the first time for the women’s tournament — the World Cup will take place in two countries with Australia and New Zealand sharing the hosting duties.

In all, 10 stadiums were selected to hold matches for this summer’s tournament with six of which being in Australia and four in New Zealand.
