Euro 2024 is now in full swing and with the group stages complete, attention turns to the knockout stages of the tournament. Getting Euro 2024 round of 16 tickets won't be an easy task, particularly as the vast majority of tickets have already been allocated.
However, all is not lost and there are still some ways to get your hands on Euro 2024 round of 16 tickets, but you will have to be quick, smart and if all else fails, rich. If you're on the lookout for tickets, here is everything you need to know.
How to get Euro 2024 round of 16 tickets
The Euro 2024 ticket ballot was completed months before the tournament began with tickets allocated for all matches from the group stages through to the final. However, some tickets have been kept back by UEFA for the knockout rounds and these are now on sale.
The tickets that have been held back are ‘fans first' tickets which are sold through individual football associations. For example, tickets for Englands Round of 16 match against Slovakia are being sold via the English and Slovakia FA's rather than through the UEFA Euro 2024 ticket portal.
Each team in the round of 16 has been allocated 6,000 ‘fans first' tickets. In order to gain access to these tickets, you will need to have attended previous matches with most nations running a loyalty points scheme to ensure tickets fall into the right hands.

Ticket prices for round of 16 matches at Euro 2024:
- Fans first: €50
- Category 3: €85
- Category 2: €175
- Category 1: €250
All category 1-3 tickets have been sold for the round of 16, which means only ‘fans first' tickets will be available as explained above.
Euro 2024 round of 16 resale tickets
UEFA have re-opened their resale to allow anyone who has Euro 2024 round of 16 tickets, but can no longer attend, the option to list their tickets for sale. This might be if plans have changed or if their team hasn't qualified for the fixture in question as expected.
These tickets will be re-listed at face value but will be snapped up quickly so you will have to be quick on the day. At the time of writing, the resale platform has a couple of category 1 tickets available for Italy vs Switzerland in Berlin.
Other resale queues sparked controversy online after thousands of fans were locked out of the online ticket portal due to technical issues.
Euro 2024 round of 16 – alternative methods
If you are desperate to get Euro 2024 round of 16 tickets but don't believe you will be able to get ‘fans first' tickets or get any on the official resale, then you can try one other method.
Several third-party websites are already listing round of 16 tickets but at a price far greater than face value. One of the most reputable third-party ticket platforms is StubHub, so keep an eye on their listing in the coming days to try and get a bargain.
