Imagine a European Championship played among fjords, futuristic stadiums, midnight sun, and the dazzling northern lights.

Euro 2040 Scandinavia would not just be another tournament—it would be a revolution in how we experience football. A championship that combines world-class sport with breathtaking natural beauty, cutting-edge technology, and the unique Nordic identity.

This is the vision of Euro 2040 Scandinavia.


Host Nations and Key Cities

🇳🇴 Norway

  • Stadiums: Ullevaal Stadium (Oslo, reconstructed), Viking Stadion (Stavanger), and a futuristic new stadium in Bergen.

Why Norway?
Because nowhere else can you watch a football match and, just hours later, sail through a fjord carved by glaciers. Oslo is modern, green, and perfectly connected. Stavanger offers coastal charm and cultural depth, while Bergen—between mountains and sea—could become the most scenic host city in Euro history.

And for visitors? Explore the Geirangerfjord, ride the Flåm railway, or chase the midnight sun above the Arctic Circle.


🇸🇪 Sweden

  • Stadiums: Strawberry Arena (Stockholm), Ullevi (Gothenburg, modernized), Tele2 Arena (Stockholm).

Why Sweden?
Because it knows how to host big events—and already has world-class stadiums. Stockholm’s Friends Arena, with over 65,000 seats, is ready to shine as the final venue. Gothenburg brings tradition, having hosted European finals before, while Stockholm adds double hosting power with Tele2.

Tourists can wander through Gamla Stan, sail through the Stockholm archipelago, or visit Gothenburg’s lively canals and seafood markets. Sweden mixes tradition with modernity like no other.


🇩🇰 Denmark

  • Stadiums: Parken Stadium (Copenhagen), Aarhus Stadium (new build), Odense Stadium.

Why Denmark?
Because Copenhagen is one of the world’s most liveable cities—and the Danes are crazy about football. Let’s not forget: Denmark shocked Europe by winning Euro 1992.

Copenhagen brings the iconic Nyhavn harbor, the royal palaces, and a buzzing nightlife. Aarhus and Odense, with new stadiums, would add depth to the tournament while showing Denmark’s rich history and cultural spirit.


🇫🇮 Finland

  • Stadiums: Helsinki Olympic Stadium, Tampere Stadium (expanded).

Why Finland?
Because football here is on the rise, and Finland brings something no other host can offer—the northern lights. Imagine a group stage game in Helsinki, followed by fans traveling north to Lapland for midnight skies glowing green and purple.

Helsinki charms visitors with its mix of Nordic minimalism and Eastern influence, while Tampere blends lake landscapes with modern city vibes. Finland makes Euro 2040 feel… otherworldly.


🇮🇸 Iceland (Partial Host)

  • Stadium: Laugardalsvöllur (Reykjavik, expanded to 25,000).

Why Iceland?
Because size doesn’t always matter. This small island nation captured global hearts at Euro 2016, and their Viking Clap still echoes in football culture. Including Iceland adds that “magic of the north” few places can match.

Reykjavik offers colorful houses, geothermal spas like the Blue Lagoon, and landscapes that feel like another planet—volcanoes, glaciers, and black-sand beaches. For fans, it’s the adventure of a lifetime.


Tournament Format

  • Teams: 32 national teams (following UEFA’s expansion trend).
  • Groups: Each host nation guarantees at least one group.
  • Knockouts: Spread across the capitals, with semifinals in Stockholm and Copenhagen.
  • Final: The grand finale at Friends Arena, Stockholm—transformed into a “Nordic temple of football” with over 65,000 roaring fans.

Euro 2040 wouldn’t just be a tournament—it would be a journey across five countries and countless landscapes.


Challenges and Opportunities

Challenges:

  • Climate: Summer days in the far north are long and bright, but unpredictable weather could be a factor.
  • Distances: Traveling between Iceland, Finland, and mainland Scandinavia requires top-level logistics.
  • High Costs: The Nordic countries have strong economies but organizing such a mega-event wouldn’t come cheap.

Opportunities:

  • The Greenest Euro Ever: Scandinavia leads the world in renewable energy and sustainable transport. Euro 2040 could be the first truly carbon-neutral football tournament.
  • Tourism Boom: From Norway’s fjords to Denmark’s castles, Sweden’s islands to Iceland’s volcanoes, fans would experience a tournament beyond football.
  • Nordic Identity: Wooden and glass architecture, modern design, and innovative technology would create a unique visual identity for the tournament.

Could It Really Happen?

It may just be a dream for now—but Euro 2040 Scandinavia would represent something extraordinary: a European Championship that blends sport, culture, and nature like never before.

It would prove that football is more than just a game—it’s a way to unite people, showcase nations, and create unforgettable memories.

And maybe, just maybe, the northern lights will shine above the final whistle.
