MIAMI – The 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup final will be played at Houston’s NRG Stadium on July 6.

CONCACAF announced the site on Wednesday. In September, it said 14 sites in 11 areas will be used for the tournament, which starts June 14. It avoided the Eastern Seaboard, staying away from FIFA's expanded 32-team Club World Cup.
