Morocco will co-host the 2030 men's World Cup with Spain and Portugal, with three centenary matches planned in South America. For travellers, this means increased interest in Moroccan host cities, and the infrastructure projects that come with it.
Morocco's bid proposed six host cities: Casablanca, Rabat, Tangier, Marrakech, Fes and Agadir. The centrepiece is the Grand Stade Hassan II, a new stadium under construction near Casablanca with a planned capacity of about 115,000. As of October 2026, FIFA has not announced the venue for the final, and Casablanca, Madrid and Barcelona have all been discussed. Check official FIFA channels for the latest decisions.
What visitors can expect
- High demand for accommodation in host cities around match days.
- Busy transport between host cities and across the Strait of Gibraltar.
- Infrastructure upgrades, including rail and airport projects, announced in preparation for the tournament.
How to plan sensibly now
- Follow official channels
Tickets, schedules and fan information will come from official tournament sources. Be wary of unofficial ticket sellers.
- Think in regions
Moroccan cities connected by rail, such as Tangier, Rabat, Casablanca, Fes and Marrakech, may be easier to combine than places reached only by road.
- Build in time to see the country
Use non-match days to explore medinas, the Atlas or the coast, rather than only following fixtures.
- Book flexibly
Choose refundable accommodation and transport until your match plans are certain.
