DC.

Aren’t they usually in the host nation’s capital?

1994 was at the Rose Bowl.

Copa 2016 was at Met Life Stadium.

Isn't there a new stadium being built in Inglewood that should open in 2020? I bet it will be held there.

Just looked it up. LA Stadium at Hollywood Park. It will also host the 2028 Olympics opening and closing ceremonies.

Read somewhere today that the Rose Bowl is listed as the LA venue, not the new stadium. That can easily change though.

Both venues will likely gets games I imagine.

I wanted to make a snarky response about Mexico City, but I'm guessing that's out based on a quick scan of the soccer board thread. So, is it true that the U.S. hosts the quarters until the end? Also, that's not three auto bids, is it?

It'll be in Phoenix or Las Vegas since it rarely rains in either of those two areas.

Brazil has hosted the final in Rio twice, IIRC. So not necessarily

Hasn't been decided yet, but it looks like all three countries will get an auto bid.

Everything I’ve seen says Atlanta and Jerry world for the semis and MetLife for the final

All games will be on US soil starting with the quarterfinals. And yeah, three auto bids. Qualification is going to be screwy for all regions considering their will be an expanded field.

Pretty sure the plan is to have it in New York as of right now.

Is Jerryworld in the rotation for games? I know we all laugh at Jerrah, but instead of having to choose out of NYC/LA/DC for the final, I feel like it would be a fitting venue to conclude this thing.

Neither of those cities will host any games.

Yes. Likely to get a semifinal. Also one of the two finalists to be the media hub (Atlanta is the other).
