The Barça Academy World Cup is FC Barcelona’s flagship youth tournament, held every Easter in Barcelona, bringing together 2,000+ top players from over 50 Barça Academies worldwide. Selection is strictly merit-based, and players get exposure to international scouts, global broadcasts on Barça TV, and even opportunities to meet FC Barcelona first-team stars — making it the ultimate competitive stage for Barça Academy talent across the world.
The World Cup kicks off with a grand opening ceremony — an electric start to welcome all squads from around the globe. This is where the tournament truly begins
The BAWC ends with a spectacular closing ceremony — celebrating every player, every journey, and the pure joy of football. It’s where memories are sealed and legends are inspired.
