Fellow Members,
Welcome to the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™
ALL IN ONE RHYTHM™. In
2014, the biggest event in world football will return to its spiritual home.
Sixty-four years after its first hosted a FIFA World Cup™, Brazil will once again
stage the showpiece event. With a record five world titles to its name and the
distinction of being the only country to have played in all 19 previous editions
of the tournament, Brazil is counting down the days until the participating nations
and their fans arrive on its shores.
Six
of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ stadiums have already been inaugurated and
were used during the FIFA Confederations Cup 2013, namely those in Belo
Horizonte, Brasília, Fortaleza, Recife, Rio de Janeiro and Salvador. Among
their number is the legendary Maracanã in Rio, where the final will be played
in 2014. Six other FIFA World Cup venues are being completed in Cuiabá,
Curitiba, Manaus, Natal, Porto Alegre and Brazil’s biggest city, São Paulo,
with the latter’s Arena de São Paulo set to stage the opening match involving the
hosts on 12 June.
The
host cities are located across the country’s five regions, with each scheduled
to stage at least four games at Brazil 2014. Participating teams, members of
the media and fans travelling to Brazil will all discover an abundance of
flavours, sounds and customs in one of the most culturally diverse nations on
the planet. Over three million tickets will go on sale exclusively through
