United Kingdom has formally presented an impressive joint proposal to be the host of the 2035 FIFA Women’s World Cup. In the event of a successful bid, it would be the first time since the 1966 Men’s World Cup that the UK is hosting a major global football event. The proposal features 22 stadiums spread out over 16 cities and thereby, it would be one of the largest sporting events ever staged in the country.UK’s Joint Bid for the 2035 Women’s World Cup showcases a bold plan with 22 stadiums across four nations to host the biggest women’s football event in UK history.
The bid is for 22 stadiums:
Sixteen of the stadiums are in England, 3 in Wales, 2 in Scotland, and 1 in Northern Ireland.
Each stadium should have no less than 20,000 seats, according to the FIFA regulations.
Manchester United intends to build a new stadium with a capacity of 100,000 seats. As the construction plans are under review, Old Trafford remains a backup for the time being.
Birmingham City has laid out the blueprint of a 62,000-seater state-of-the-art stadium. The £2.5 billion project is scheduled to be completed by 2030.
Chelsea seeks a new stadium solution because Stamford Bridge does not meet FIFA standards. The club could either rebuild or relocate to a place such as Earl’s Court.

With the most venues, England is leading the bid. That list basically covers Wembley, Emirates Stadium, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Selhurst Park, and much more. Apart from the proposed new stadium at Birmingham, the only non-Premier League stadium is Ashton Gate in Bristol. Stadium MK and Bramall Lane are not included in the bid.
Scotland is represented on the list by two stadiums: Hampden Park and Easter Road. Both stadiums comply with FIFA requirements and have a high capacity for hosting.
There are three stadiums in Wales, including the Principality Stadium, Cardiff City Stadium, and STōK Cae Ras in Wrexham, which is being redeveloped.
Windsor Park is the only stadium included. Casement Park was removed due to the rising costs of redevelopment.
For the 2035 FIFA Women’s World Cup, the United Kingdom presents an ambitious, up-to-date, and well-thought-out proposal. The UK, backed by the four home nations and with new stadiums and renovations, intends to welcome the world to a fantastic tournament.
There are 22 stadiums spread across 16 cities included in the UK joint bid. England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland are where these stadiums are located.
These football clubs are aiming to build new, bigger, and more modern stadiums that will be able to meet FIFA standards. Some current stadiums may not qualify due to low seating capacity or infrastructure limitations.
If the UK were to be chosen as the host, it would be the first time since 1966 that the World Cup would be held in the UK. Furthermore, it would be the largest single-sport event ever in the UK with 48 teams and 104 matches.
Since England has 16 of the 22 stadiums along with the largest-capacity venues that are part of the bid, most of the matches will be played there.
