Hollywood Park in Inglewood, California has been picked to host the next two editions of the Concacaf Nations League Finals.

Concacaf said the competitions’ matches will be played at the world-renowned SoFi Stadium, one of the host venues for the FIFA World Cup 2026™ and home to the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams and Chargers.

Miami (US)-based the Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football, abbreviated as Concacaf, is one of FIFA’s six continental governing bodies for association football. It serves as the organizing body for 41 national associations, including the United States, and spans from Canada in the North to Suriname (country in South America) in the South.

The 3.1 million-square-foot SoFi Stadium is the largest stadium in the NFL, as well as the first indoor-outdoor stadium. It seats approximately 70,000, expandable up to 100,000, with more than 260 luxury suites and more than 13,000 premium seats.

In 2023, the stadium also hosted a sold-out Concacaf Gold Cup Final between Mexico and Panama.

The fourth edition of the Concacaf Nations League Finals will take place from March 20 to 23, 2025. The festivities will begin on Thursday, March 20, with the semi-final matches.

This will be followed by a concert featuring a top artist at YouTube Theater. The event will conclude with the Third-Place Match and the Final on Sunday, March 23, where a new CNL Champion will be crowned.

Starting on Thursday, ahead of the semi-finals, fans will also be able to enjoy a Concacaf Nations League Finals Fan Zone at the Hollywood Park grounds.

Fans will have the opportunity to see and take pictures with the CNL Winner’s Trophy and former players, participate in interactive games, and enjoy culinary experiences from the participating nations.

The fifth edition of the competition is planned for March 2027.

Concacaf President and FIFA Vice President, Victor Montagliani said, “We are extremely pleased that SoFi Stadium – one of the best venues in the world – will host the next two editions of our Concacaf Nations League Finals and that Hollywood Park, in which the stadium is based, will host a range of fan activities to celebrate this tremendous competition.

“The Concacaf Nations League has transformed men’s national team football in our confederation, providing opportunities for all our federations to thrive and compete to reach their next level.

“These compelling events, alongside our 2025 Gold Cup and men’s and women’s club competitions, will take place at a pivotal time for the growth of the game in the region. We look forward to welcoming fans to engage with all of these tournaments and to follow and enjoy the beautiful game in Concacaf.”

Adolfo Romero, Vice President Programming and Booking, SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park added, “We are proud to partner with Concacaf and create a Nations League week for the first time ever at Hollywood Park, providing soccer fans from across the region an opportunity to engage on and off the pitch.

“This partnership to host the Nations League Finals at SoFi Stadium and a concert at YouTube Theater further solidifies Hollywood Park as a premier global destination bringing sports and entertainment together for a world-class event like Nations League week.”

The Concacaf Nations League is a national teams competition launched by the Confederation in 2018 to ensure that all 41 Concacaf Member Associations regularly compete in official matches between World Cups.

The competition’s 2024/25 edition kicked off during the FIFA International Match Window of September and will continue to play until November, after which the four best teams in League A (the top league) will advance to the semi-finals.

The Group Stage and Quarterfinals also serve as the qualifiers for next summer’s Concacaf Gold Cup.

The United States is the defending Concacaf Nations League Champion, having won the three previous editions (2021 in Denver, CO, 2023 in Las Vegas, NV, and 2024 in Dallas, TX).
