FIFA Series


The FIFA Series is a biennial invitational football tournament promoted by FIFA that features international friendlies between national teams from different confederations, taking place in March of every even-numbered year. The first edition was held in March 2024.
The tournament brings together men's national teams from all six FIFA confederations in a series of mini-tournaments, each consisting of four teams and held at a centralised venue during the FIFA match window in March of every even-numbered year. FIFA provides financial support to the participating national teams and is also in charge of organising the tournaments together with the host member association.

History

On 16 December 2022, FIFA launched a friendly tournament proposal, named the "FIFA World Series", in order to give national teams from different confederations more opportunities to play against each other. FIFA President Gianni Infantino confirmed the tournament on 16 March 2023, following his re-election to the post during the 73rd FIFA Congress in Kigali, Rwanda.
The inaugural edition in 2024 acted as a pilot phase for the tournament and was originally going to feature 5 series of 4 teams each to be held in 4 host countries during the FIFA match window from 18 to 26 March 2024. Eventually the FIFA Series: Egypt was added for a total of 6 series and 24 teams in the inaugural edition.
Following the success of the pilot phase, Infantino announced the second edition in 2026 during his speech at the 74th FIFA Congress in Bangkok, Thailand in May 2024. In November, 2025 FIFA announced that at least 8 associations would host games of the expanded tournament, as well as the debut of the first Women's FIFA Series, held across 3 locations.
