Ten stadiums across the UK and Ireland will host Euro 2028 matches after their joint bid was officially approved by UEFA's executive committee on Tuesday (October 10).
The UK and Ireland were officially confirmed as hosts of the European Championships 2028 on Tuesday running unopposed after Turkey withdrew to focus on a joint bid for the 2032 Euros alongside Italy.
The joint bid was put forward back in April and sees the footballing associations of England (FA), Scotland (SFA), Wales (FAW), Northern Ireland (IFA) and the Republic of Ireland (FAI) join together.
Ten stadiums across the five nations will host the Euro 2028 matches, with analysts projecting a three billion euro (£2.6bn) boost to the host nation economies on the back of the tournament.
