Fiji will host the OFC Men’s Champions League 2026 from 9th to 22nd August, with matches to be played in Lautoka and Ba.

The official draw was confirmed at the Oceania Football Confederation Home of Football, Te Kahu o Kiwa, in Auckland, setting the stage for the 25th edition of Oceania’s premier club competition.

Host club Rewa FC will headline Group B and will be looking to make the most of home advantage.

The Fijian side, who were semi-finalists in 2024, have been drawn alongside PNG's Lae City FC, Vanuatu's Galaxy FC, and qualifying tournament winners, Cook Islands' Tupapa Maraerenga FC.

Tupapa Maraerenga secured qualification for the second consecutive edition after winning the qualifying tournament in Samoa earlier this year, while Galaxy FC and Lae City FC are making long-awaited returns to the competition.

In Group A, 13-time champions Auckland City FC will attempt to defend their crown.

The New Zealand powerhouse has been drawn with Solomon Islands' Central Coast FC, Tahiti's AS Venus, and New Caledonia's AS Tiga Sport.

Auckland City’s clash with AS Venus will be a replay of the 2022 final.

Central Coast FC were semi-finalists in 2022, while AS Tiga Sport reached the last four in 2025, making Group A a highly competitive pool.

Rewa will take on Galaxy FC on 9th August at 4pm. They will then face Tupapa Maraerenga FC on the 12th at 4pm, followed by a match against Lae City FC on the 15th at 7pm.

Rewa will play all their matches at Govind Park in Ba.

All Group A matches will be in Lautoka.

With Fiji set to welcome the region’s top clubs, the tournament promises two weeks of exciting football as teams battle for continental supremacy.
