The 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup is the 13th edition of the competition and the 23rd overall regional championship for CONCACAF.
The winner of the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup will face off in a playoff game against the winner of the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup, United States, to determine who will represent CONCACAF in the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia. Should the United States win the tournament, they will automatically qualify.
Participating nations
For the first time that the two overall fifth-placed teams of the Caribbean zone and the Central America zone will compete to qualify for the CONCACAF Gold Cup, previously five teams from Central America and four from the Caribbean have qualified for the Confederation's competition.
