Why 2027 Is Such a Landmark Year

For the first time in history, the world's biggest women's football tournament heads to South America — and Brazil, the spiritual home of the beautiful game, is the host. That alone makes 2027 special. But for Australian football, the timing could not be better.

After the wave of excitement the Matildas generated on home soil, women's and girls' football in Australia has surged. Registrations are up, clubs are expanding their girls' programs, and a new generation of players has grown up believing the world stage is within reach. Brazil 2027 is the next great moment for that generation to aim at — whether they want to watch the best in the world, or experience Brazilian football culture for themselves.

There is nothing quite like Brazil when it comes to football. The passion is in the streets, on the beaches and in the stadiums. For a touring Australian team, training and playing in that environment is a genuinely transformational experience.

Three Ways Australians Can Be Part of Brazil 2027

1. As a supporter or fan group

If you simply want to soak up the atmosphere of a landmark tournament, we can build a supporter trip around the matches and the cities — Rio de Janeiro, Copacabana, the Maracanã, and the colour and energy that only Brazil can offer. This suits families, groups of friends, and football clubs who want to travel together and experience the event as fans.

2. As a team on tour

For clubs, academies, school teams and women's and girls' sides, 2027 is the perfect backdrop for a football tour. Imagine your team training on Brazilian pitches, playing friendly fixtures against local sides, and visiting the stadiums in the same country where the world is watching. It is the ultimate way to develop players, bond a squad and create memories that last a lifetime.

3. Both — the complete experience

Many groups want it all: the competitive football *and* the atmosphere of the tournament. We can combine training, matches, stadium visits and cultural experiences into one seamless itinerary, so your group gets the full Brazil 2027 experience without any of the logistical stress.

Rio de Janeiro and the Maracanã

No stadium in world football carries the aura of the Maracanã. Standing inside it — or even outside its vast curved facade — is a bucket-list moment for any football lover. Rio itself is a spectacular host city: Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, and a football culture you can feel the moment you arrive.

For touring teams, Rio offers the rare combination of world-class football and unforgettable sightseeing. For supporters, it is simply one of the most exciting cities on earth to experience a major tournament.

Have You Ever Thought About Playing Where the World Plays?

That is exactly what 2027 offers Australian teams. Your squad can train, play competitive fixtures and experience the atmosphere in the very country — and city — where the world will be watching. Very few teams ever get that chance, and 2027 is a once-in-a-generation window to take it.

Why Book Early for Brazil 2027

When the world's biggest women's tournament comes to Brazil, global demand will be immense. Flights from Australia, quality accommodation in Rio and the best local fixtures will all be limited and will book out well in advance. The earlier you reserve, the better the experience you can secure — at the level you expect, on the dates that suit your group.

The good news is that you do not need to have every detail worked out to begin. A short conversation about your group — whether you are a team, a family or a fan group — and your rough dates is all it takes to get the planning underway.

How Olimpia Tour Makes It Happen

Every Olimpia Tour is fully managed end to end. For Brazil 2027 that can include international flights, accommodation, private transfers, training sessions, friendly matches, stadium visits, cultural experiences and dedicated on-ground support throughout. Each trip is custom-built around your group, your goals and your budget.

We also run football experiences elsewhere in South America, so if you want to combine Brazil with a training block in Argentina, we can build that too. To start planning, get in touch with our team or build your tour online, and take a look at our dedicated Rio 2027 experiences.
