Champions League venue for 2026 final confirmed

The Champions League final in 2026 will be played in Budapest, Hungary.

UEFA confirmed this on Wednesday.

The European football governing body also delayed giving the 2027 final to Milan amid uncertainty over the future of San Siro.

The Puskás Arena and San Siro were the venues for the two finals scheduled to be awarded.

This year’s final between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund will be played on June 1 at Wembley Stadium in London.

Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena will host next year’s showpiece event.
