RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt to host UEFA finals in 2026 and 2027

22.05.2024

RB Leipzig's Red Bull Arena will welcome the UEFA Europa Conference League final in 2026, while Eintracht Frankfurt's Deutsche Bank Park will play host to the 2027 Europa League showpiece.

The two destinations were chosen at UEFA's Executive Committee meeting in Dublin, which is host to this year's Europa League final - contested by Bayer Leverkusen and Italian side Atalanta.

The Red Bull Arena will also host four UEFA Euro 2024 matches this summer, while the Deutsche Bank Park has five games to look forward to.

Leipzig's Red Bull Arena home has hosting duties first, when the 2025/26 UEFA Conference League is decided at the 47,069-capacity stadium in Saxony.

Frankfurt's 51,500-capacity Deutsche Bank Park, meanwhile, has been selected as the venue for the 2026/27 Europa League final.

UEFA's latest announcements comes after Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena was previously awarded the 2024/25 Champions League final.

Cologne was the most recent German city to crown a UEL winner, when Sevilla beat Inter Milan to the 2019/20 trophy in a match played out in front of an empty RheinEnergieStadion due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

When the Champions League final last came to Germany in 2015 it was a different matter; that time around there were 70,442 supporters inside Berlin's Olympiastadion to witness Barcelona's victory over Juventus.
