The tournament was hosted by Mexico between 24 July and 4 August 1999. The tournament was won by Mexico, who beat Brazil 4–3 in the final. Mexico became the first host nation to win the FIFA Confederations Cup. The competition was to originally be held in three stadiums, in three cities in the country. However, since the stadiums in Monterrey were sponsored by a competing beer company other than the official advertiser, the city was left out of the tournament altogether. The tournament was originally scheduled for 8–20 January 1999, but was rescheduled by FIFA on 17 November 1998 to accommodate the scheduling of the participating European teams.Chicago http://www.ussoccer.com/News/Mens-National-Team/1998/11/1999-FIFA-Confederations-Cup-Rescheduled-For-July-28-August-8-In-Mexico.aspx 1999 FIFA Confederations Cup Rescheduled for July 28 – August 8 in Mexico United States Soccer Federation 17 November 1998 21 January 2020 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20120425055452/http://www.ussoccer.com/News/Mens-National-Team/1998/11/1999-FIFA-Confederations-Cup-Rescheduled-For-July-28-August-8-In-Mexico.aspx 25 April 2012 The tournament was organized in two groups of four teams, in which two teams from both groups advanced to the semi-finals.

Mexico qualified as both the host nation and the winners of the 1998 CONCACAF Gold Cup, so the CONCACAF berth was given to the United States. France also qualified automatically as winners of the 1998 FIFA World Cup, but they declined to participate; World Cup runners-up Brazil took their place, which meant Bolivia replaced Brazil as the CONMEBOL representatives, having finished as runners-up in the 1997 Copa América. The other four places went to the winners of the most recent continental competitions: Germany (UEFA), Saudi Arabia (AFC), Egypt (CAF) and New Zealand (OFC).
