Most venues at a football (soccer) FIFA World Cup finals

The 2002 World Cup finals were split between the two host countries of Japan and South Korea. Each of the countries had 10 venues hosting matches, making a total of 20 different locations in all, hosting 64 matches. Second on the list is the 1982 tournament in Spain, which saw 17 venues host 52 matches.

Not surprisingly, the World Cup Finals tournament that used the fewest venues was the inaugural event in Uruguay in 1930, which used just three different stadiums used for 18 matches.
