The 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup will be the 20th edition of the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup, the quadrennial world championship for women's national basketball teams, sanctioned by FIBA. The tournament will be hosted in Berlin, Germany, from 4 to 13 September 2026. This is Germany's second time hosting after previously organising the event in 1998, after being awarded the hosting rights in spring 2023.
Sixteen teams will take part in the tournament, four more than the previous edition but returning to the same number as was between 1990 and 2018. The Germans automatically qualify as hosts. Qualifiers will be decided via a mixture continental champions and teams progressing from the qualifying tournaments.
United States are the four-time defending champions.
