The stadiums that will host the finals of: Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. Football Fans can’t wait to see which teams will go to the finals, but until then we are introducing you to the wonderful stadiums.
UEFA Champions League – Wembley Stadium
The 2023/24 UEFA Champions League final will take place at London’s historic Wembley Stadium on June 1.
The legendary Wembley hosts a record eighth European final and the third in the UEFA Champions League era after the 2011 and 2013 finals.
With 90,000 seats, it is the largest stadium in the UK and the second-largest stadium in Europe.
Designed by Populous and Foster and Partners, the stadium is crowned by the 134-metre-high. Wembley Arch which serves aesthetically as a landmark across London as well as structurally, with the arch supporting over 75% of the entire roof load.
The stadium was built by Australian firm Multiplex at a cost of $1.3 billion. Two partially retractable roof structures over the east and west ends of the stadium can be opened to allow sunlight and aid pitch growth.
UEFA Conference League – OPAP Arena
The 2023/24 UEFA Europa Conference League season is set to conclude at the OPAP Arena in Athens, Greece, on Wednesday 29 May 2024.
Opened in September 2022, the new stadium stands on the site of the Nikos Goumas Stadium, which had been home to AEK Athens since 1930 but sustained serious damage during an earthquake in 1999. With a capacity of over 30,000, the new stadium in the north-western suburb of Nea Filadelfia stages Greece international home games as well as AEK matches.
The newest stadium in Greece meets the standards of category 4 Fifa and Uefa elite stadiums. The project is combined with a regeneration program of the surrounding park & urban areas.
UEFA Europa League – Aviva Stadium
The 2023/24 UEFA Europa League season will conclude at Aviva Stadium in the Republic of Ireland on May 22. With a capacity in excess of 50,000, Aviva Stadium is the home of the Republic of Ireland’s national football and Ireland’s rugby union team.
First opened in 2010, the stadium will be staging its second Europa League decider, having been the venue for the all-Portuguese final of 2011 between Porto and Braga, when Radamel Falcao scored the only goal for the Dragons.
The stadium is a bowl shape with four tiers on three sides of the ground; the lower and upper tiers are for general access, the second and third levels feed the second tier for premium tickets and the fourth tier for corporate boxes. The northern end of the stadium, due to its proximity to local housing, incorporates only the lower tier of the bowl.
The capacity of the stadium was criticised even before its opening for being too small, particularly in light of the large supporter attendance figures for Irish rugby internationals and football internationals. The stadium’s roof undulates in a wave-like manner so as to avoid blocking light to local residences.
