The City of Irvine has announced that the U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team has selected the Great Park as its official Team Base Camp training site during this summer's 2026 FIFA World Cup.

The U.S. Men’s National Team will train at the Great Park Championship Soccer Stadium, a premier soccer facility that accommodates more than 5,000 spectators. Officials said the decision highlights Irvine’s world-class athletic facilities and the City’s continued investment in spaces that support elite-level competition while remaining accessible to the community.

Although training sessions during the tournament will not be open to the public, the City is planning on a community event in April.
