ATLANTA — After hosting eight World Cup matches this past summer, Atlanta is a proposed central hub for the 2031 Women’s World Cup.
It is part of a joint bid between the U.S., Mexico, Jamaica and Costa Rica, according to FIFA officials.
FIFA officials say Atlanta being the central hub would include hosting the World Cup draw.
Officials add that the Fox Theatre and Woodruff Arts Center are named as possible venues.
A study from Bank of America found brick-and-mortar businesses, including bars and restaurants, saw increased spending as fans gathered to watch matches and take part in World Cup festivities.
The Georgia Hotel and Lodging Association said revenue increased 15 percent in June due to the World Cup matches in Atlanta.
