FIFA recently announced the logo for the 2026 World Cup, a tournament co-hosted in three different countries: the United States, Canada and Mexico.
On May 18, in a grand ceremony held at the prestigious Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, FIFA President Gianni Infantino and two-time World Cup champion Ronaldo Nazário unveiled the official logo of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The tournament will be held in the United States, Mexico and Canada in three years.
The logo simply has a black background with the number "26" drawn vertically in white, with the trophy clearly visible across the entire image.
In a press release, FIFA explained the meaning of this year's logo: "For the first time in history, the image of the actual trophy and the year of the tournament are fully depicted on the logo. This will be a guideline for future World Cups, when the image of the year and the trophy allows the host countries and cities to express their own uniqueness."
World Cup Logos Through the Years
Along with the tournament's overall logo, each host city will also launch a location-specific logo that reflects the characteristics and features of each city.
In addition, at the event, FIFA also announced the slogan of the upcoming World Cup as #WeAre26.
"We 26 is a rallying cry. It is a moment when three nations and a continent say: We are united as one to welcome the world and deliver the biggest, best and most inclusive World Cup ever," FIFA President Gianni Infantino said at the time. FIFA has yet to reveal where the 2026 World Cup final will be held. "We still don't know where the 2026 World Cup final will take place. This is still under consideration. So please send us your proposals and make sure we have additional proposals, but certainly Los Angeles will be one of the key cities for the 2026 World Cup," Infantino added.
The biggest football festival on the planet, which will see Lionel Messi and Argentina try to defend their title, will take place from June 11 to July 19, 2026.
