Euro 2024 has so far been a thrilling tournament, packed with goals, excitement and brilliant atmospheres. Being in Germany, the tournament was always going to be fan-friendly and it has proved to be exactly that which has made it a fantastic spectacle.
With the semi-finals now upon us, fans have another opportunity to get their hands on some Euro 2024 tickets. All the information you need to know is below in this regularly updated guide on the fan-led, fan-focused Football Ground Guide…
How to get Euro 2024 tickets
Contents
Knockout round tickets
On 23 June, UEFA started selling round of 16 tickets to fans once each fixture is confirmed. All of the tickets that are available for round of 16 matches are ‘fans first' tickets which means UEFA are handing over the responsibility to individual football associations to distribute the tickets.
For the round of 16, each competing association will receive 6,000 tickets and how these are sold will be up to each association but typically, fans who have attended the most matches in recent times will be at the front of the queue.
Semi-final tickets
The last two semi-finalists of Euro 2024 were confirmed on Saturday, June 6, and two mouth-watering ties now await us – France vs Spain and England vs the Netherlands. With such high-profile and iconic sides still in the competition, demand for tickets to the matches is incredibly high.
All four nations will have been provided with approximately 8,000 tickets for the occasion, all of which would likely have been sold via loyalty schemes through the respective Football Associations.
Resale options for the Semi-finals
UEFA have also re-opened their resale portal in the coming days to allow anyone who can no longer attend the semi-final matches to sell their ticket(s) to other supporters. While this is certainly an option, the vast majority of fans intend on keeping their ticket and therefore, purchasing them on this platform is incredibly difficult to do.
Alternatively, you may consider using third-party resale websites for Euro 2024 tickets. Some sites are more reputable than others. However, there is always a risk when using unofficial avenues that you will either be forced to pay over the odds or be sold a fake ticket.
This is especially true if you consider that UEFA is going mobile in selling and distributing/delivering tickets for this year's European Championship.
One of the most reputable ticket resale sites is StubHub. You can currently buy tickets for a host of Euro 2024 matches via StubHub. However, they currently have no Euro 2024 semi-final tickets available for purchase.
Live Football Tickets is another third-party platform to check if you need to purchase the Euro 2024 tickets. Although these will command an incredibly high fee – the cheapest England ticket for their match against the Netherlands is currently listed for £558 – it may be the only option available to you this close to kick-off.
However, it is still no guarantee and with UEFA insisting on mobile tickets, which means there will be no printed versions at the match venue, reserving a seat for any or all the Euro matches is much more restricted than ever.
You need to install the UEFA ticketing app to book your match tickets in advance and wait for the final ticket release, most likely a week to the first game of the event. Most importantly, keep the mobile application installed to avoid missing important updates.
Semi-final Hospitality tickets
The official UEFA website is still advertising hospitality tickets for Euro 2024 so if you are prepared to pay big money for a ticket then you might want to consider this option instead of paying more than face value for a standard ticket. Hospitality ticket prices are slightly different for each of the two games.
Via the official hospitality partner of Euro 2024, the prices are as follows:
France vs Spain
- Victory Lounge – €1,950
- Club in Skybox – €1,950
- Skybox Social – €3,000
- Kaiser Lounge – €3,500
- Private Skybox – €55,000
Netherlands vs England:
- Club Lounge – €4,000
- Prestige Goal Lounge – €4,500
- Skybox Social – €6,500
- Prestige Lounge – €6,500
- Private Skybox – €97,500
Euro 2024 tickets resale platform
The last time the official Euro 2024 ticket resale platform opened was on Thursday, 2 May. On that day, UEFA re-released 100,000 that had been returned to them from earlier sales and allowed the general public to join a virtual queue to purchase any available tickets.
Unsurprisingly, it only took a couple of hours for all of these tickets to sell out and thousands of fans missed out due to complications with the website.
Since May 2nd, no further ticket sales have gone live on the official Euro 2024 ticket portal but UEFA have urged fans to keep checking back for further updates. Therefore, there is a chance that additional tickets could become available before and/or during the tournament.
Why were so many tickets offered for resale?
Fans who were successful in the Euro 2024 tickets lottery were forced to pay for every match they were successful in. Therefore, some people who applied for every match in the hope of improving their success odds may have been forced to fork out thousands of pounds.
As a result, UEFA introduced an official Euro 2024 ticket resale platform where successful applicants were able to advertise their spare tickets to other supporters.
When did Euro 2024 tickets go on sale?
The initial public sale date of Euro 2024 tickets – 3 October – was a significant one. As the official date of German reunification in 1990, 3 October is German Unity Day, or, in German, “Tag der Deutschen Einheit.”
This fits in with the tournament's overall purpose. The motto “United by football” has been stated several times. Fans originally had the period of Tuesday, 3 October to Thursday, 26 October, to apply for the Euro 2024 tickets ballot. The window then opened up again on 2 December after the group stage draw took place and shut on 12 December 2023.
Euro 2024 tickets: What was the process and ballot details?
After the final application window shut in December 2023, the official Euro 2024 ticket ballot took place in January 2024.
How much will Euro 2024 tickets cost?
Euro 2024 tickets vary in price from €30 to €1,000 with significant variation caused by two factors: seat location and match importance.
- Seat location: In general, tickets closer to the pitch and in the side stands are more expensive. There are tickets reserved behind both goals reserved for fans of the teams involved which are kept significantly cheaper than others. These are as cheap as €30 for group stage fixtures.
- Match importance: The opening match will be more expensive than the other group stage fixtures, while ticket prices increase steadily between the group stages and the final, at which the cheapest ticket will €95, more than three times the price of the cheapest ticket in the group stages.

How many tickets did UEFA make available for the Euro 2024 tournament in Germany?
At the onset, UEFA announced that there would be a total of 1.7 million tickets. At least 80% of the tickets were sold to fans of the various teams participating in the event.

Where can I resell my Euro 2024 ticket?
To resell your ticket for the Euro 2023, you must use the official resale platform. Tickets sold or purchased through any other platforms risk being rendered invalid at stadium entry points. The resale window was opened until April 15, beyond which no more was accepted.
What is the cheapest and the most expensive ticket in the 2024 European Championship?
The cheapest ticket will go for €30 while the most expensive one costs €1,000. Note that the difference in Euro 2024 ticket prices depends on the seating location and the significance of the game.
