To date (2009), the FIFA World Cup has never been hosted in an African country. The first African World Cup host will be the Republic of South Africa in 2010.

However the two junior World Cup competitions (Under 20 and under 17 years of age respectively) have both been held in African countries. See following list:

Year - Competition - Host
1977 - Under 20 World Cup - Tunisia
1997 - Under 17 World Cup - Egypt
1999 - Under 17 World Cup - Nigeria
2009 - Under 20 World Cup - Egypt
2009 - Under 17 World Cup - Nigeria
