The FIFA Series is a biennial invitational football tournament promoted by FIFA that features international friendlies between national teams from different confederations, taking place in March of every even-numbered year. The first edition was held in March 2024. The tournament brings together men's and women's national teams from all FIFA confederations in a series of mini-tournaments, each consisting of four teams at a centralised venue. FIFA provides financial support to the participating national teams and is also in charge of organising the tournaments together with the host member association.
On 16 December 2022, FIFA launched a friendly tournament proposal named the "FIFA World Series" in order to give national teams from different confederations more opportunities to play against each other. FIFA President Gianni Infantino confirmed the tournament on 16 March 2023, following his re-election to the post during the 73rd FIFA Congress in Kigali, Rwanda.
The inaugural edition in 2024 for men's national teams was originally going to feature 5 series of 4 teams each to be held in 4 host countries during the FIFA match window from 18 to 26 March. Eventually, the FIFA Series: Egypt was added for a total of 6 series and 24 teams in the inaugural edition. Following the success of the pilot phase, a second edition for 2026 was announced in May 2024. In November, 2025 FIFA announced that at least 8 associations would host games of the expanded tournament, as well as the debut of participation of women's national teams, held across 3 locations.
