City council will decide on Tuesday if Vancouver will continue in the FIFA 2026 Men's World Cup bidding process. So far, Vancouver has been chosen as one of four Canadian cities in the joint North American bid, which includes the U.S. and Mexico. According to a staff report for council, each host city stands to net $90 million to $480 million in economic activity. Morocco is the only other location that has announced it will also bid to host the 2026 World Cup. The 2026 World Cup is open to bids only from the Americas, Africa, and Oceania.
