11 min read

In 2027, Brazil hosts the world's premier women's football tournament — and for Australian football fans, families and supporters, it is the trip of a lifetime. Picture yourself in the stands of the Maracanã as the world's best players take the field, surrounded by the colour, noise and passion that only Brazilian football crowds can deliver. Then imagine combining that experience with the beaches, culture and energy of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and beyond.

Why be there in person?

There is nothing like live football. The atmosphere inside a stadium during a major tournament is something television simply cannot capture — the noise, the tension, the collective joy when a goal goes in. Brazil amplifies all of that. This is a nation where football is not just a sport but a way of life, and the energy in and around the host stadiums will be extraordinary.

For Australian supporters, 2027 is a rare chance to follow the Matildas (or simply enjoy the best of international women's football) in one of the world's most exciting countries. It is also an opportunity to experience Brazilian culture at its most vibrant — Carnival spirit, world-class food, stunning coastlines and a warmth of welcome that few destinations can match.

What a supporter tour looks like

Match-day experiences

The centrepiece of any supporter tour is the football itself. We help you navigate ticketing, match schedules and travel between host cities so you can attend the matches that matter most to your group. Whether you want to follow one team's entire group stage or hop between venues, we build the itinerary around your preferences.

Accommodation and transfers

During a major tournament, accommodation in host cities books out months in advance. We secure quality, centrally located hotels and manage all internal transfers — airport pickups, stadium shuttles and intercity travel — so your group moves smoothly and safely.

Cultural experiences

Between matches, Brazil has an extraordinary amount to offer. In Rio, there is Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer, Copacabana and the Lapa neighbourhood. São Paulo delivers world-class museums, street art and food. We can also arrange day trips to Iguazu Falls, the Amazon gateway city of Manaus or the colonial charm of Salvador — depending on your schedule and interests.

Combine watching with playing

If your group includes active players — a school team or club side — we can build a hybrid tour that combines supporter experiences with training sessions and friendly fixtures against Brazilian opposition. It is the best of both worlds.

Who is a supporter tour for?

  • Club supporter groups — rally your members for the ultimate away trip.
  • Schools and families — a touring party where students play and families watch, then everyone comes together for the cultural and match-day experiences.
  • Groups of friends — a bucket-list football holiday in one of the most exciting countries on earth.

Planning and logistics

Book early

Global demand for Brazil in 2027 will be enormous. Flights from Australia, hotel rooms in host cities and desirable match tickets will all be contested well in advance. The earlier you start planning, the better your options.

Let a specialist handle it

A major tournament in South America involves complex logistics — multiple cities, language barriers, currency, transport and safety considerations. A specialist sports tour operator eliminates the stress. We manage the full itinerary end to end, provide on-ground support and ensure your group is looked after from arrival to departure.

How much does a supporter tour cost?

Every tour is tailored, so costs depend on your match schedule, accommodation level, group size and the cultural experiences you include. We provide a clear, itemised quote on request and can structure payments to suit your group. There are no hidden extras.

How to get started

Tell us your group, your preferred matches and roughly when you want to travel, and we will build a tailored proposal. Visit our build your tour page to start planning, or get in touch and we will take care of everything.

We help navigate the ticketing process and build your itinerary around the matches you want to attend. Ticket availability is subject to the official allocation process, but early planning gives you the best chance.

Is Brazil safe for Australian tourists?

Brazil is a fantastic destination when visited with the right preparation. Our tours include vetted accommodation, managed transfers, on-ground support staff and comprehensive safety briefings so your group travels with confidence.

Can we combine a supporter tour with a playing tour for our team?

Absolutely. We regularly build hybrid tours where players train and compete while family members and supporters enjoy the cultural and match-day experiences alongside them.

A typical supporter tour runs between ten and sixteen days, depending on how many matches you want to attend and how much of the country you want to explore. We help you find the right balance.
