Following a successfully hosted and record-breaking FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia New Zealand 2023™, which welcomed nearly two million people to matches across Australia and New Zealand, Football Australia is ambitious to bring more major tournaments to our shores.We have explored the opportunity to bid to host the FIFA World Cup™ and - having taken all factors into consideration - we have reached the conclusion not to do so for the 2034 competition.
The only possible alternative left is the joint-Southeast Asian bid then. It’ll almost certainly go to Saudi Arabia now.
Australia was the joint-South East Asian bid. It’s over.
Zero chance of that bid happening
SEA bid is longer possible because Indonesia pulled out few weeks ago
