UEFA Euro 2028 Kicks Off
- UEFA Euro 2028 is the 18th European Championship, played 9 June to 9 July 2028 and co-hosted by England, Scotland, Wales and the Republic of Ireland; Spain are defending champions[1][2][3]
- The UK-Ireland joint bid was chosen unanimously on 10 October 2023 in Nyon, beating Turkey (which withdrew to bid for Euro 2032 with Italy); Casement Park in Belfast was dropped, so Northern Ireland hosts no games[1][2]
- Nine stadiums, including Wembley, Hampden Park, Dublin Arena and the National Stadium of Wales; around three million tickets; 51 matches, 24 teams, 31 days[2][3]
- The schedule was announced 12 November 2025: the opening match is in Cardiff on 9 June 2028, the final and both semi-finals are at Wembley (final 9 July), each host country stages a quarter-final, and the round of 16 is in every venue except Wembley[1][2][3]
- Format: 24 teams in six groups, top two plus the four best third-placed teams reach the round of 16[2]; all four hosts enter qualifying with two automatic spots held in reserve, 12 qualifying groups, and the qualifying draw in Belfast on 6 December 2026[1][2][3]
