Concacaf has announced that SoFi Stadium will stage the next two editions of its Nations League Finals, while Conmebol has awarded hosting rights for this year’s Copa Libertadores and Copa Sudamericana finals.

SoFi Stadium, home of the NFL’s Los Angeles Rams and Chargers, will host the finale of the Concacaf Nations League in March 2025 and 2027. Tickets for the 2025 event will go on sale on October 25.

Concacaf, the governing body for football in North America, Central America and the Caribbean, has previously staged its Nations League Finals at AT&T Stadium, Allegiant Stadium and Empower Field at Mile High.

All three editions of the Concacaf Nations League have been won by the US. The 2025 Finals are scheduled to take place from March 20-23.

Concacaf president Victor Montagliani said: “We are extremely pleased that SoFi Stadium – one of the best venues in the world – will host the next two editions of our Concacaf Nations League Finals and that Hollywood Park, in which the stadium is based, will host a range of fan activities to celebrate this tremendous competition.”

Last month, SoFi Stadium was announced as a host venue for next year’s edition of the Concacaf Gold Cup national team tournament. It will also host matches at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Meanwhile, Conmebol, the governing body for football in South America, has assigned hosting rights for the upcoming finals of its men’s club competitions.

The Copa Libertadores final will take place at the Estadio Monumental in Buenos Aires on November 30. The 84,000-capacity stadium is home to Argentine Primera División club River Plate.

Conmebol announced in February that Buenos Aires would host the Copa Libertadores final, but the stadium still needed to be confirmed. This year will mark the first time the final has taken place in Argentina since it switched to a one-match format in 2019.

Conmebol said it evaluated two other options – Estadio Libertadores de América and Estadio Único Diego Armando Maradona – before deciding on Estadio Monumental.

Meanwhile, the Copa Sudamericana final will take place at Estadio General Pablo Rojas in the Paraguayan capital of Asunción. The match will be held on November 23.
