As the football world turns its attention to the climax of the 2024–25 season, three iconic venues are preparing to host the continent’s most prestigious finals.
Here’s a look at the three host stadiums for the 2025 European finals:
Champions League – Allianz Arena
The Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, will host the 2025 UEFA Champions League Final. Opened in 2005, this futuristic stadium is known for its luminous, color-changing exterior and is home to FC Bayern Munich.
It has already played a central role in European football history, most memorably in 2012 when it hosted the Champions League final. The stadium also hosted multiple matches during the 2006 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2020.
Paris Saint-Germain will face Inter Milan, and this match marks the first Champions League final without representation from England, Spain, or Germany since 2004.
This is PSG’s second appearance in a Champions League final, aiming for their first title. Inter is making their seventh appearance in a European Cup/Champions League final, with three previous victories (1964, 1965, 2010).
Europa League – San Mames
The San Mamés Stadium in Bilbao, Spain, will stage the 2025 UEFA Europa League Final. While the current structure was completed in 2013, it carries the name and legacy of the original San Mamés—also known as “La Catedral”—which stood on nearly the same site from 1913 until it was replaced.
San Mamés has previously hosted matches in UEFA Euro 2020 and, more recently, the 2024 UEFA Women’s Champions League Final.
This final marks the third all-English Europa League final in history as Manchester United will face Tottenham Hotspur.
Manchester United are aiming for their second Europa League title in recent years, having last won in 2017.
On the other side, despite a challenging domestic season, currently sitting 16th in the Premier League, they have a chance to claim their first major trophy since 2008.
Conference League – Stadion Wroclaw
The Stadion Wrocław in Poland is the stage for the 2025 UEFA Europa Conference League Final. This venue was built ahead of UEFA Euro 2012. With a capacity of around 43,000, it serves as the home of Śląsk Wrocław and is one of the most modern stadiums in the country.
This final is significant as it could see Chelsea become the first club to win all four major European trophies. A victory would add the UEFA Conference League to their collection, making them the first club to have won the Champions League, Europa League, Cup Winners’ Cup, and Conference League.
On the other hand, Real Betis reached their first-ever European final.
