Venues

A total of seven venues around six cities were used [1]. Originally, Sanga Stadium in Kyoto and Kobe Universiade Memorial Stadium in Kobe were also on the finalist, but later rejected on 30 April 2025. Notably, none of the stadiums used in the 2020 Olympics with 2012 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup will be used in this tournament, and the Shizuoka Stadium with Nagai Stadium are the only stadiums in this tournament that were used in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
