The home of the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders will also be one of the host cities for the next FIFA World Cup.
Soccer’s grandest international tournament will be hosted jointly by the United States, Canada, and Mexico four years from now, and Thursday marked the unveiling of the 16 host cities. Of the selected cities, 11 were US-based, 3 from Mexico, and 2 from Canada. Seattle and Lumen Field submitted a bid, and that bid was a winner!
“We are proud and honored to have Lumen Field selected as a host venue for the FIFA World Cup 2026,” said Chuck Arnold, president of the Seahawks and First & Goal, Inc.
