Las Vegas will play host to the 2026 World Cup draw on December 5, according to multiple reports on Tuesday.
ESPN and TUDN’Mexico said Vegas had been picked for the draw of the expanded 48-team event, which will be hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico.
When the United States played host to the 1994 World Cup, the draw ceremony was also conducted in Las Vegas.
Fifa has yet to comment on the venue or timing of the event.
In 1994, the draw was staged in Las Vegas even though it was not a host city for any matches, a situation that is also the case for next year’s event.
