The 2026 FIFA Women's Club World Cup is the planned inaugural edition of the FIFA Women's Club World Cup, an international club association football competition organized by FIFA. The tournament is scheduled to be played in January and February 2026 by 16 women's club teams.

Background

FIFA initially announced plans to establish a global women's club competition in May 2021. It would be structured similarly to the men's Club World Cup, which is scheduled to become a quadrennial tournament beginning with the 2025 edition. The FIFA Council approved the updated women's football calendar at the 74th FIFA Congress held in Bangkok in May 2024, which included the inaugural Women's Club World Cup in early 2026. Set to take place in January and February 2026, the tournament will involve 16 teams and will be held every four years. FIFA has yet to unveil specific details regarding the tournament's structure and qualification for participating teams.
