FIFA WORLD CUP 2018 or 2022
The USA Bid Committee went through an eight month host city selection process and on January 12th announced the cities that will be included in its official bid book to FIFA to host the FIFA World Cup™ in 2018 or 2022.
The 18 cities that have been selected for inclusion in the official USA Bid Committee bid book that will be presented to FIFA are, in alphabetical order: Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Dallas, DENVER, Houston, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego, Seattle, Tampa and Washington, D.C.
The 18 cities represent the entire country in the National Bid and will continue working with the USA Bid Committee both on the development and promotion of their local and national campaigns during the next 10 months leading up to FIFA’s final decision, scheduled for December 2, 2010.
“Today our hopes of becoming a host nation are strengthened many fold by the announcement of the 18 cities we will submit to FIFA on May 14,” said Sunil Gulati, the Chairman of the USA Bid Committee and President of U.S. Soccer. “These 18 cities share outstanding leadership with a vision and understanding of what a FIFA World Cup™ would mean to the United States, along with how well we can play the role of host to visitors from throughout the world.”
