CONCACAF has awarded the 2025 and 2027 Nations League final hosting rights to SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Hollywood Park and the surrounding areas venues will serve as locations for fan activities, which will include concerts and a fan zone.
SoFi Stadium is also a venue for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, and home to the NFL's Los Angeles Rams and Chargers.
SoFi Stadium made its CONCACAF debut in 2023, hosting the Gold Cup final between Panama and Mexico. The match was a sellout, with El Tri defeating Los Canaleros 1-0 thanks to an 88th minute strike from Santiago Gimenez.
The 2025 Nations League finals will be the fourth edition of the tournament, with matches being played March 20-23.
Festivities will begin with the semifinal matches, which will be followed by a performance from a "top artist" at YouTube Theatre in Hollywood Park. Fan experiences will take place over the following days in the surrounding area.
“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,” said CONCACAF president and FIFA vice president, Victor Montagliani.
“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,” added Montagliani.
