The 2027 AFC Asian Cup will be the 19th edition of the AFC Asian Cup, the quadrennial international men's football championship of Asia organised by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). The tournament involves 24 national teams after the expansion in 2019. It will be held in Saudi Arabia. The tournament is scheduled to be held in January 2027.

Interestingly, only three of the eight stadiums submitted are venues that already exist: the impressive 60,000-seater from Jeddah, the recently extensively expanded Prince Abdullah Al Faisal Stadium and King Saud University Stadium from Riyadh, commissioned eight years ago. Other stadiums are to either be built from scratch, such as Dammam Stadium, Qiddiya Stadium and Riyadh Stadium, or be extensively rebuilt - these include King Fahd International Stadium and Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium. Also, the two stadiums reported as reserve stadiums are venues to undergo major reconstruction.
