Colombia–Ecuador–Peru 2030 FIFA World Cup bid
# Colombia–Ecuador–Peru 2030 FIFA World Cup bid

The Colombia-Ecuador-Peru 2030 FIFA World Cup bid is a potential joint bid in hopes to host the 2030 FIFA World Cup with the countries Peru, Colombia, and Ecuador. The bid was proposed by Ecuador.

In September of 2019, the bid was announced with Peru confirming to joint the bid a few days later after it was announced. It is still not confirmed to be added to the list of potential hosts for the World Cup. There are possibilities of additions of Bolivia, Panama, or Venezuela. As of 2023, the bid is not officially placed.

## History

### Proposal

The joint bid was proposed in September of 2019 by Ecuadorian president, Lenín Moreno via Twitter, announcing Ecuador's intention to host the tournament.A few days later, Colombian President, Iván Duque agreed with Ecuador for the bid. Martín Vizcarra of Peru was rumored to also agreed when the two met each other earlier in Leticia. The proposal, however, would face tough competition, with already confirmed bids from neighboring Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Paraguay along with others. None of the three ever hosted a World Cup or any other large event of this size, only Colombia, has gone close to hosting the 1986 FIFA World Cup but withdrew due to economic problems. Another problem is that all countries are within the Andes, where visiting teams would face problems due to the altitude, a problem that has happened with Bolivia in the past. In November 2019, the bid was announced with the confirmation of Peru.

As of 2023, coming to a closing for the World Cup bid schedule, none of the countries have had any update on their intention to bid but still remains open. None of the countries were able to make an international stage in international FIFA hosting. Colombia was supposed to host the 1986 FIFA World Cup but was withdrawn due to economic instability. None of the countries had experience hosting a tournament of this size. Despite their lack of experience, it is still a possibility for the bid to enter the competition, with possibly entries of Panama, Bolivia, or Venezuela.
