Nine venues across the four home nations will stage the 24-team tournament.
Unlike previous Euros that have seen the hosts qualify automatically, Uefa has had to alter its protocols given the 2028 edition is being held across the four nations.
Instead, 20 nations will go through, with 12 as group winners and eight as the best-placed runners-up.

Two of the remaining four spots will be allocated to the two best-ranked host nations who did not qualify automatically, while the final two places will be decided via play-offs for the remaining runners-up in the group phase.

Should all of the home nations emerge through qualifying as either group winners or runners-up, then four spots will be allocated through the play-offs.

Six stadiums in England – Wembley, Etihad Stadium, Anfield, Villa Park, Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium and St James’ Park in Newcastle – will host games in 2028, while Dublin’s Aviva Stadium, Hampden Park in Glasgow and the Principality Stadium in Cardiff make up the list.

Northern Ireland was originally named as a host nation, but has since pulled out after Belfast’s Casement Park was removed as an option due to funding.

The qualification schedule is expected to be finalised in autumn 2025.
