UEFA on Monday announced the venues for the Champions League finals through 2029, along with the host cities for other major European club competition finals, including the Europa League, the Conference League, and the women’s Champions League.

Munich and Barcelona on the Champions League Map
Allianz Arena to Host the 2028 Final
UEFA said the German city of Munich will host the 2028 Champions League final at the Allianz Arena. It will be the second time the city hosts the showpiece match, after the stadium staged the 2025 final, which Paris Saint-Germain won to claim their first title in the competition.
The stadium remains one of Europe’s most modern and high-profile venues, making it a regular choice for major UEFA events.
Camp Nou Returns for the 2029 Final
The 2029 Champions League final will be played at Barcelona’s Camp Nou, which will host the final for the first time since 1999, when Manchester United beat Bayern Munich 2-1 in one of the most famous finals in European football history.
The selection carries particular significance because of Camp Nou’s historic standing as one of the most iconic stadiums in world football.
