The U.S. is already hosting the World Cup again in 2026, together with Canada and Mexico. The next possible time after that appears to be 2038 , based on recent reports that U.S. officials are considering a bid for that tournament.

What’s known

  • 2026 : The U.S. is one of the host countries right now.
  • 2038 : U.S. officials have publicly floated the idea of bidding again for the men’s World Cup.
  • That is not confirmed yet ; it is only a possible future bid.

Simple answer

If you mean “when could the U.S. host again after 2026,” the best current answer is possibly 2038.

Context

The 2026 tournament is still underway, with the final scheduled for July 19, 2026. Any later U.S. hosting would depend on FIFA’s bidding process and whether the U.S. submits a successful proposal.
