Missed out on Euro 2024 tickets in the first sale wave? Don't despair yet!
A huge 20 million ticket requests flooded in from around the globe for the 1.2 million available seats, necessitating a lottery. Fret not, though, as the unlucky lottery participants will have another chance shortly.
Previewing the schedule
The second sales phase kicks off after the draw on Dec. 2 in Hamburg. A vibrant lineup of top teams such as England, Spain, and France will be competing in their preliminary round matches at specific dates and stadiums. Germany's opponents in this phase will also be unveiled then, with 21 of the 24 European Championship participants confirmed shortly afterwards. The final three contestants will be determined in March following the play-offs. Subsequently, a sales phase for the three play-off qualifiers' supporters will take place, followed by a last-minute sale before the tournament and during the knockout stages.
Ticket availability and application
Over 1 million tickets will be up for grabs in the second sales phase, mainly for the eligible teams' die-hard supporters. Ticket applications are open from Dec. 2 via UEFA and two days later through the national associations of the qualified teams. As witnessed at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, UEFA's exclusive digital concept eliminates paper tickets.
A word on resale
Successful lottery participants are obligated to pay for all allocated tickets, potentially resulting in hefty costs given the order system. UEFA recommends fans to stick only to matches they intend to attend, as official resale of tickets will only be permitted via UEFA's platform. Expect the resale to begin in spring 2024.
DON'T GIVE UP. Even if you didn't manage to secure tickets during the first sales phase, there's still hope for you! UEFA's second sales phase starts shortly after the draw on Dec. 2, offering around 1 million tickets for soccer enthusiasts worldwide. A last-minute sale slotted before the tournament and during the knockout round means there's a chance for fans to get tickets for their preferred UEFA Euro 2024 matches, even if luck wasn't on their side in the initial draws.
