UEFA European Championship
Women’s Euro 2022 stadiums – Everything You Need To Know
At which stadiums will Euro 2022 take place?
The Euros will bring women’s international football to nine towns and cities across England, with 10 stadiums hosting matches.
You can catch games in Manchester, London, Sheffield, Milton Keynes, Brighton, Southampton, Rotherham and Leigh throughout the tournament, with all 16 teams dreaming of being at Wembley for the final.
Wembley apart, the smallest and largest of the Euro 2022 venues can be found in Manchester. The 4,700-seater Manchester City Academy Stadium – home to Manchester City Women and City’s youth teams – will host three Group D games, while Manchester United’s Old Trafford has the distinction of staging the first Lionesses’ game of the tournament.
Where are England playing at Euro 2022?
England’s first match, against Austria, takes place at Old Trafford on Wednesday, 6th July. The home of Manchester United, Old Trafford is the largest club stadium in the UK with over 70,000 fans set to pack the stands to see the Lionesses in action.
After that, England travel to the south coast to face Norway at Brighton’s Amex Stadium on Monday, 11th July. Their final group game, against Northern Ireland on Friday, 15th July, is also on the coast: at St. Mary’s Stadium in Southampton.
Which stadiums are hosting the Euro 2022 semi-finals and finals?
Bramall Lane, home of Sheffield United hosts the first semi-final Tuesday, 26th July, with the second semi taking place at MK Dons’ Stadium MK a day later.
The iconic Wembley Stadium is the setting for the Women’s Euro 2022 final, one year after hosting the delayed Men’s Euro 2020 final. With a capacity of close to 90,000, Wembley is the biggest stadium in the UK and synonymous with English football. After the Three Lions missed out in the Men’s Euros here last year, can the Lionesses go one better on Sunday, 31st July?
