What are the stadiums for Euro 2024?

Germany has some of the most mesmerizing football venues in the world.

The likes of Allianz Arena and Signal Iduna Park are bound to captivate fans who’ll watch the football action live over the next month or so. 

Today, we’ll be taking a closer look at all ten stadiums which will host EURO 2024 matches.

Ten cities, ten stadiums, four of which are usually the home turfs of teams playing in the second Bundesliga. This just goes to show you the strength of the German football infrastructure.

Olympiastadion Berlin

• Stadium Capacity: 71,000

• Location: Berlin

• Team: Herta BSC (German 2. Bundesliga)

Hertha BSC is an iconic Bundesliga team. However, due to mismanagement and a decimated team, they’re now playing in the second Bundesliga division.

But, that doesn’t take anything away from the greatness that is the Olympiastadion Berlin.

The biggest events hosted here were the 2006 World Cup final and the 2015 Champions League final.

Seeing as this is the biggest and most luxurious venue, it’s no wonder it’s set to host the EURO 2024 final on July 14th. 

BVB Stadion

• Stadium Capacity: 62,000

• Location: Dortmund

• Team: Borussia Dortmund (German Bundesliga)

Also known as the Westfalenstadion and Signal Iduna Park, the BVB Stadion is a true masterpiece. It’s known for the Yellow Wall of Borussia Dortmund, one of Bundesliga’s most iconic teams. 

The stadium has a 66,000 capacity for UEFA matches and is widely considered as the cultural heart of the entire region. 

The most notable UEFA game played in the stadium was the 2001 UEFA Cup Final between Deportivo and Liverpool.

Thanks to its modern design, plenty of space and all sorts of built-in services, Allianz Arena has hosted numerous important games since 2006. On the upcoming EURO, it will host six matches in total.

Four group stage clashes, including the opener between Germany and Scotland, a ro16 clash, and a semifinal on July 9th.

Frankfurt Arena

• Stadium Capacity: 47,000

• Location: Frankfurt

• Team: Eintracht Frankfurt (German Bundesliga)

The venue recently went through its first upgrade. It was built from 2002 to 2005, so that doesn’t come as a big surprise.

For Bundesliga matches, Frankfurt Arena can accept 58,000 after the latest stand upgrade. For UEFA matches, though, the official stadium capacity is 47,000.

In the past, this stadium hosted one of the 2006 FIFA World Cup quarterfinals as well as the 2002 Women’s Cup Final.

This time around, Frankfurt Arena will host 4 group stage matches and a round of 16 clash on July 1st. 

Volkparkstadion

• Stadium Capacity: 49,000

• Location: Hamburg

• Team: HSV (German 2. Bundesliga)

The Volksparkstadion in Hamburg has a capacity of 49,000 for UEFA matches. The most notable hosted matches in its history were the 2006 World Cup quarterfinal and 2010 Europa League final.

On this EURO, it will host four group-stage matches as well as one of the four quarterfinals.

The venue got a fair bit of upgrades over the last few years. Most notably, in 2023 it received new lighting and sound systems, as well as new state-of-the-art floodlights.

There were also several upgrades in terms of attendees’ quality of life and accessibility.

• Stadium Capacity: 40,000

• Location: Leipzig

• Team: RB Leipzig(German Bundesliga)

Red Bull Leipzig has been on an upward spiral for quite a while now. They currently have a formidable team and will be playing Champions League football next season.

So, one thing is for sure, the Leipzig Stadium will have fantastic football action even after the EURO wraps up.

Back in 2006, the stadium hosted several group-stage matches and a round of 16 clash. The same will happen on the 2024 EURO. The biggest match in this tournament will be the third round group stage clash between Croatia vs Italy. The final match on the Leipzig Stadium is set for July 2nd, a round of 16 encounter.

Cologne Stadium

• Stadium Capacity: 43,000

• Location: Cologne

The jewel of the River Rhine. The city of Cologne’s population is now over 1 million.

Besides the gorgeous stadium, Cologne also has one of Germany’s most mesmerizing landmarks, the Chuch of Saint Peter, and is home to one of the biggest esports competitions - Intel Extreme Masters Cologne.

The stadium is home to FC Koln, a team which will be playing in the second Bundesliga division next season after failing to stay out of the relegation zone.

It’s not the biggest venue, coming in at 43,000, but it definitely has its charm. That said, it will only feature 4 group stage matches and one round of 16 clash.

Stuttgart Arena

• Stadium Capacity: 51,000

• Location: VfB Stuttgart

• Team: Stuttgart (German Bundesliga)

Back in 2006 when Germany hosted the FIFA World Cup, Stuttgart Arena was used for the third-place play-off between Germany and Portugal.

It must be a lucky talisman for the German side as they cruised to the bronze medal with a 3:1 victory.

The 2024 EURO doesn’t have a third-place match. Still, Stuttgart Arena will host one of the four quarterfinal matches, as well as four group-stage matches. 

Dusseldorf Arena

• Stadium Capacity: 40,000

• Location: Dusseldorf

• Team: Fortuna Dusseldorf (German 2. Bundesliga)

Finally, Dusseldorf Arena! It is the home of Fortuna Dusseldorf, another high-profile team playing in the second division of the German Bundesliga. It’s quite a small stadium, but one with an electric and cozy atmosphere.

Even though Fortuna plays in the second division, the atmosphere is always nothing short of buzzing.

Thanks to such an electric atmosphere, it comes as no surprise that Dusseldorf Arena is not just going to host several group stage matches but a ro16 clash and one quarterfinal as well.
