The Gold Cup is officially coming back to America's Finest City. Full story:
On Monday the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football finalized the group of 15 stadiums that will host games. San Diego's shiny new Snapdragon Stadium made the cut. This will be the fourth time the Gold Cup is played in San Diego but the first at SDSU's new venue. The previous three were at Qualcomm Stadium, most recently in 2017.
The tournament starts on June 16 and ends on July 17. There are 13 nations who have already secured spots in the event, including the USA and Mexico, and 12 more will play in a preliminary knockout round for the chance to earn three remaining spots in group play. That means at least 40 matches will be played during the event. What we don't know yet is who plays when or where, but that information is not far off.
The draw takes place on Friday, April 14. San Diego should host at least two matches and it will be a chance to audition for even more in the future. While the 2026 World Cup venues have already been decided on there is going to be another major international tournament held in America in 2025. The format has not yet been finalized but it's expected to be a kind of dry run for the World Cup.
