The 2027 Women’s World Cup opens on Thursday, June 24, 2027, and ends with the final on Sunday, July 25, 2027, at the Estádio do Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, according to the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) schedule released Aug. 20, 2026. Reuters reported the same dates the same day. Kickoff times are not yet published, so this page lists what FIFA has confirmed and will add the times in Eastern Time (ET), Pacific Time (PT), UK and Canadian time once they are out.
Women’s World Cup 2027 dates to mark
FIFA said the release confirms “when and where all 64 fixtures will be played” for “all 32 teams.” Hosts Brazil begin their campaign at the Maracanã on Thursday, June 24. From June 24 to July 25 inclusive the tournament spans 32 days, a count by Fresh Calendars. Mark both dates on the June 2027 printable calendars and the July 2027 printable calendars.

FIFA also says that one semi-final and the final take place at the “iconic Estádio do Maracanã.”
Which host cities and stadiums will stage matches?
FIFA named eight host cities on May 7, 2025. The Maracanã is the only venue the schedule release ties to specific dates so far; group-stage fixtures are still to be allocated to the other cities.
| Host city | Stadium |
|---|---|
| Belo Horizonte | Estádio Mineirão |
| Brasília | Estádio Nacional |
| Fortaleza | Arena Castelão |
| Porto Alegre | Estádio Beira-Rio |
| Recife | Arena de Pernambuco |
| Rio de Janeiro | Estádio do Maracanã |
| Salvador | Arena Fonte Nova |
| São Paulo | Arena Itaquera |
When will Women’s World Cup 2027 kickoff times be announced?
After the draw on Friday, Dec. 11, 2026, FIFA “will finalise and publish an updated version of the match schedule, with group-stage fixtures allocated to Host Cities and kick-off times confirmed.” Until then there is no official kickoff time, so no conversion to ET, PT, UK or Canadian time is possible, and we are not guessing one. This story will be updated with those times after FIFA publishes them.
