History

The City of Manchester Stadium, known to most as the Etihad, was built for the 2002 Commonwealth Games and reborn as a football ground the following year when Manchester City moved in from Maine Road. For UEFA Euro 2028 the arena in the east of the city joins nine venues across the UK and Ireland, staging group-stage matches and one of the round-of-16 ties as the tournament fans out from 9 June.

Manchester needs little introduction as a football city, a place whose culture has travelled the world as far as its clubs, and it pairs that pedigree with a music heritage few places on earth can match. England, one of the four host nations, are expected to play group games in Manchester and at Wembley, adding to the sense of occasion.

A knockout night here will draw supporters from across the continent to a stadium expanded for the finals to around sixty thousand. Stay in the city centre or the Northern Quarter and the Metrolink tram runs out to the ground in minutes, with bars, galleries and the reborn warehouse districts on hand between matchdays.
