Discover Vancouver & BC
About The Land
A Message from xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation).
We are honoured to welcome local residents and guests to FIFA World Cup 2026™ Vancouver on the shared ancestral and unceded territories of xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We have stewarded these lands and waters since time immemorial.
Together we are proud to have partnered with the Province of B.C. and the City of Vancouver in hosting this historic tournament. We recognize the unique opportunity to share our histories and cultures with the world and generate legacies for the next seven generations in our communities, all the while celebrating the spirit of the beautiful game.
