The World Baseball Classic isn’t an annual event, so fans will have to wait a bit longer after a thrilling 2026 WBC.
As of this writing, the next World Baseball Classic is expected to take place in March 2030.
The location of the next WBC remains undecided, but there is a good chance that Japan will host at least one pool. The United States could host the rest of the tournament, as it did in 2026.
As for which teams will compete in the next WBC, the top four teams from each of the four pools have already automatically qualified. The last-place finishers will need to clinch a spot via the qualifying round.
