Cincinnati is a major league sports town. Cincinnati can bring the Midwest to World Cup 2026 with its close proximity to 60% of the U.S. population by car or air travel. We can galvanize the youth soccer community to grow the game under the World Cup umbrella and are already doing so. We can bring Fortune 500 corporate support with our bid.
Cincinnati’s soccer stadia and team facilities are world-class. Paul Brown Stadium would host matches on the idyllic riverfront, while team facilities are offered at TQL Stadium and Practice Facility as well as Mt. Saint Joseph, Northern Kentucky University, Xavier University and University of Cincinnati.
There are more than 25,000 hotel rooms in the Cincinnati area with some 3,000 first-class rooms within a brief walk to Paul Brown Stadium, great restaurants, fabulous stores, wonderful attractions and exciting entertainment.
