Miami, FL — Concacaf has today announced key details about the 2025 Gold Cup, the Confederation’s flagship men’s national team championship, including the date for the tournament draw, match dates and the identity of the 14 stadiums in the United States and Canada that will host the competition’s matches.
The 18th edition of the competition will be played next summer, between June 14 and July 6, and will feature 16 men’s national teams. Just one year out from the FIFA World Cup 2026, the Gold Cup will provide a highly competitive tournament for the region’s best teams and an opportunity for even more fans to engage with the sport at a pivotal time for its growth in North America, Central American, and the Caribbean.
During next year’s edition of this prestigious tournament, three venues will be hosting Concacaf Gold Cup matches for the very first time, including BC Place (Vancouver, BC), PayPal Park (San Jose, CA), and U.S. Bank Stadium (Minneapolis, MN).
Mexico is the reigning champion of the Concacaf men’s Gold Cup, having defeated Panama by a score of 1-0 in the 2023 Final at a sold-out SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, CA. Mexico also holds a record nine men’s Gold Cup titles, followed by the United States with seven and Canada with one.
Regarding this exciting 2025 Gold Cup announcement, Concacaf President and FIFA Vice President, Victor Montagliani, said: “The Concacaf Gold Cup is our flagship event for men’s national teams and the 2025 edition is certain to be a highly competitive tournament that delivers on and off the pitch for the competing teams and their fans. As the last official centralized tournament in our region before the FIFA World Cup 2026, this Gold Cup will provide all participating federations with a great challenge and will be critical to their preparations for World Cup qualification and for participation in the FIFA World Cup itself. The tournament will create a tremendous opportunity for fans across the confederation to engage with the sport at such a pivotal time for its development.”
“I want to thank all 14 of the host stadiums and cities for their immense support for the Gold Cup, for Concacaf and their commitment to supporting the growth of the game in our region,” added Montagliani.
