The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has announced the eleven stadiums that will be candidates to host matches in Spain for the 2030 World Cup. This is part of the joint bid with Morocco and Portugal, following two years of study and preparation.

The candidate stadiums included in the bid are:

- Anoeta (San Sebastián)

- Camp Nou (Barcelona)

- Gran Canaria (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria)

- La Cartuja (Sevilla)

- La Rosaleda (Málaga)

- Metropolitano (Madrid)

- Nueva Romareda (Zaragoza)

- RCDE Stadium (Barcelona Cornellá-El Prat)

- Riazor (La Coruña)

- San Mamés (Bilbao)

- Santiago Bernabéu (Madrid)

"To define the venues, all possibilities have been analyzed, including the option to expand to 13 stadiums. This option requires unanimous agreement from the three federations, which was proposed last June by the CSD after nearly two years of joint work," the RFEF explained.

The RFEF has advocated for this option intensively, presenting it to its bidding partners. However, both the Moroccan and Portuguese Football Federations have decided to adhere to FIFA regulations, which set a maximum of 20 venues. Consequently, Spain will have 11 venues, Morocco will have six stadiums, and Portugal will have three.

In deciding the venues, a series of objective criteria were applied, in line with FIFA's bidding requirements. The evaluation considered technical project aspects, operational capacity, financial structure, and the resources of the host cities, in addition to meeting documentary and contractual requirements.
