What are World Cup 2026 national team base camps and their locations?

World Cup 2026 national teams are getting closer to planning their final few weeks before the June 11 opener in Mexico. The attention will now shift towards travelling to the United States, Mexico and Canada for the last phase of their friendly matches and training sessions. The tournament's hospitality sector is busy putting together finishing touches before teams' arrivals at their base camps.

A base camp is the primary location chosen by every participant nation for their pre-tournament training and acclimatisation, as well as the duration of their group-stage games in the World Cup. All 48 teams have selected a base camp from the FIFA-approved catalogue to suit their requirements and the locations of their group-stage fixtures. The locations are a mix of local sports complexes, university sports facilities and luxury hotels. These base camps will primarily be used until the group stage of the tournament, which runs from June 11 to 27.

Algeria selected Lawrence, Kansas, US as their base camp, with training at Rock Chalk Park, University of Kansas, and accommodation at DoubleTree, Lawrence. Argentina selected Kansas City, Missouri, US as their base camp, with training at Sporting KC Performance Center, and accommodation at Hotel Savoy, Kansas City. Australia selected Oakland, California, US as their base camp, with training at Oakland Roots Sports Club, and accommodation at Claremont Resort and Club. Austria selected Santa Barbara, California, US as their base camp, with training at Harder Center, University of California at Santa Barbara, and accommodation at Ritz-Carlton. The 32 teams advancing to the knockouts will have the option of extending their stay at the same location or moving closer to their next match venue.
