Its Edmonton, not Vancouver. BC for some strange reason didnt want to deal with such a shady organisation as FIFA---go figure
Works for me though, got lots of family in Edmonton--rooms already booked:cb:aok:

LA, San Fran, or Denver here I come.:greengrin

Assuming I'm still in the same job I'm in just now in 2026, I'll be making sure that I'm at Stanford through the summer months, rather than the other way around I'm doing things just now. Then it's a short hop on the Caltrain down to Santa Clara for the games! :greengrin
Technically it might not be there, It will either be torn down so that the world cup can go ahead, or the Donald will be able to sidestep his big ticket promise to the red necks and say he's made a brave decision not to build the wall after all so that he can deliver on his newly invented promise of the world cup in 2026. Sorted.
:agree:
Big increase from four with a potential fifth through the play-offs.
It pretty much guarantees Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay their place, then perm three from seven for the remaining spots. A lot depends on what the squads are like at the time - Chile, Paraguay, Colombia, Peru and Ecuador have all been decent at points in time and VeNezuela and Bolivia could step up.
The final supposedly in New Jersey at the Met Life.
Having watched a few football (soccer) games there before - not a huge fan of the pitch - especially when they lay it on top of 3G and has no bounce. They will also need to sort layout as pitch always looks way too cramped from TV and inside stadium.
Glad the USA have been awarded it after the last madness of Qatar.
UK or Australia next to host ideally..
The hosts stadiums were presented as decided but who knows, presumably things could change. Hard to think no Rose Bowl though. Saw 84 Olympic soccer matches there. Also keep thinking Edmonton was added solely to have 3 Canadian cities, and that it could be reconsidered.
I’m well up for this. Perfect 50th birthday present that year if you all want to chip in
