FIFA Women’s Champions Cup 2027 to be played at home of Inter Miami CF

Zurich (Switzerland), Sep 20 (UNI) A quartet of the leading women’s clubs on the planet are set to convene in the US city of Miami for the decisive stage of next year’s edition of the FIFA Women’s Champions Cup.
The last-four encounters, including the bronze final and the tournament decider will be hosted at Nu Stadium, and will determine the winners of the second instalment of the competition following Arsenal Women FC’s triumph in last year’s inaugural iteration.
Miami is no stranger to hosting FIFA’s global events, having provided the backdrop for eight matches at the maiden FIFA Club World Cup last year and seven games at the FIFA World Cup held this past June and July. The Magic City is now gearing up to welcome women’s football fans from across the globe to Inter Miami CF’s new home, which was opened this past April.
“The FIFA Women’s Champions Cup was created with a clear ambition: to give the best clubs in the world the chance to compete on the global stage every year. Following an incredible first edition that featured an unforgettable final in London, we’re now bringing the world’s top clubs to Miami,” said Jill Ellis, FIFA’s Chief Football Officer.
“The excitement surrounding this competition is already growing, and Miami provides a perfect setting to showcase the quality and global appeal of women’s club football. I can’t wait to see who rises to the occasion and lifts this beautiful trophy.”
Before the action gets under way in Miami, the competition will kick off with the Round 1 tie between the AFC titlists and their OFC counterparts. The winners of that showdown will advance
to Round 2, where they will pit their wits against the CAF champions. Further details on these two rounds are provided in the “Road to glory” section below.
The competition will then head stateside to Miami, where the Round 2 victors will face the Concacaf champions in the semi-finals. In the other last-four bout, the UEFA title holders will go head to head with the CONMEBOL conquerors.
Fans will be treated to a mouth-watering double-header on January 31, when the bronze final is set to take place ahead of the trophy decider. The match schedule will be released in due course.
“Our vision is to build on the momentum we have created in South Florida and establish Miami and Nu Stadium as one of the world’s great stages for sports and entertainment,” said Iñigo Aznar, Chief Revenue Officer, Inter Miami CF and Nu Stadium.
“Hosting the final phase of the FIFA Women’s Champions Cup 2027 is another important step in that journey, bringing the champions of the world’s leading confederations and some of the best women’s footballers on the planet to our new home. We look forward to welcoming fans from Miami and around the world for an unforgettable celebration of the game.”
The FIFA Women’s Champions Cup brings together the six reigning continental champions in
a competition that determines the best women’s club team in the world.
Before the final phase in Miami, rounds 1 and 2 will be contested next month and in December respectively. In the tournament curtain-raiser, AFC Women’s Champions League holders Naegohyang Women’s FC will meet Auckland United FC, who tasted glory in the OFC Women’s Champions League earlier this year.
The side that prevail in that contest will square off against the CAF Women’s Champions League winners in Round 2. Whoever comes out on top in that encounter will progress to the final stage in Miami, where they will battle for intercontinental glory with Concacaf titlists Club America Femenil, UEFA Women’s Champions League holders FC Barcelona Femení and the CONMEBOL Libertadores Femenina winners.
Approved by the FIFA Council in May 2024, the FIFA Women’s Champions Cup is held in years when the FIFA Women’s Club World Cup is not scheduled. The competition reflects FIFA’s ongoing commitment to expanding opportunities for women’s club football and increasing the visibility of the next generation of female players all over the globe.
