The 2019 Copa d'Aeia was the 30th international football tournament contested by the men's national teams of the member associations of FFA once every year in Aeia. It took place in Romellea from TBA to TBA 2019. It was the first Copa to be held in Sifhar, and the Nth time that it had been held in Catai. At an estimated cost of over $8.9 billion, it was one of the most expensive football championships in the history of professional football. It was also the first Copa to use the video assistant referee (VAR) system.
Host selection
In March 2017, FFA announced that the tournament would be held in Sifhar for the first time in history. Romellea announced that it will ballot for host earlier than all others, and in the process had more time to prepare. It decisively won the first round, taking Vidoria, the first team to ballot from Renekka, out of the competition. In the second round, Romellea again won in the first place. Romellea was officially elected as host nation unopposed on 30 October 2017.

Branding
The tournament logo was unveiled on 1st of March 2018 on the World Business Conference in Lozinetz. Later, it was also shown to the Romellenic citizens on a special TV program. The logo symbolizes a rose, the national flower of Romellea, painted in three shades of gold. Gold is the colour used on the flag of the country in combination with white. For text, very dark grey is used. In April 2018, the official font of the competition was unveiled. It was designed by the Romellenic specialist Genčo Parvanov.
Mascot
The official mascot for the tournament was unveiled 3 June 2018 and selected through a design competition among university students. A public vote was used to select from three finalists—a dog and a lion. The winner, with 76% of approximately 0,6 million votes, was Lôvčo—an anthropomorphic lion dressed in the colours of the Romellenic national team. The name Lôvčo ((/lʌvtʃo/) is derived from the Rumelic word for lion, lôv(/lʌv/), put in diminutive form.
