16 teams will participate in this competition

CONMEBOL have confirmed the dates of the Copa America 2024, with the United States being the host of the tournament. The declaration is a component of a number of new alliances between North and South American federations.

The Copa America is seen as the ideal lead-up to the 2026 World Cup, which will be co-hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Additionally, it will guarantee that the three host countries, who will automatically qualify for the 48-team World Cup, will have more competitive games to prepare for.

The 48th Copa América, a quadrennial international men's football association championship run by South American football's governing body CONMEBOL, will take place in 2024. The competition will take place in the US and be co-organized by CONCACAF.

Having already sponsored the Copa América Centenario in 2016, the United States will serve as the tournament's second host nation. 

Argentina are currently the champions of the Copa America and will hope to retain the trophy next year. 

There will be sixteen teams in the competition, ten from CONMEBOL and six from CONCACAF. The following 10 national CONMEBOL teams are eligible to compete:

The six CONCACAF competitors will be chosen through the CONCACAF Nations League in 2023–24. The participants are going to be chosen as play-in round winners from among the four losing quarterfinalists and the four League A quarterfinal winners. Despite becoming the event's host, the United States won't automatically advance.

The 48th North American Championship of the South American Championship 2024 will be held in the United States from June 20 to July 14, 2024. There will be 16 competitors, including 10 teams from CONMEBOL and 6 teams from CONCACAF as guests.
