FIFA targets $1 bln in revenue from the Women's World Cup

Date: May 14, 2025

FIFA is targeting $1 billion in revenue from the Women's World Cup, global soccer governing body's president Gianni Infantino said on Tuesday at the Saudi Arabia-United States (US) Investment Forum 2025 in Riyadh.

The 2023 Women's World Cup, hosted by Australia and New Zealand, broke even after generating more than $570 million in revenue.

The next women's World Cup in 2027 will be hosted by Brazil, making it the first edition to be held in South America.

The US is poised to be named host of the 2031 edition, which will be expanded to 48 teams from 32. Infantino also said there was massive potential for football to generate more revenue outside Europe.
