Germany, Poland, Portugal, Sweden-Denmark Vie to Host 2029 Women's Euros

UEFA has confirmed four final bids to host the 2029 Women's European Championship following Italy's withdrawal. The bids come from Germany, Portugal, Poland, and a joint submission by Sweden and Denmark. Germany, with a strong history in the tournament, aims to leverage large venues and sell over one million tickets, while Portugal and Poland would be debut hosts for a women's football tournament. The decision on the host nation(s) will be announced at UEFA's Executive Committee meeting in Nyon, Switzerland, on December 3. This announcement follows the 2025 tournament hosted by Switzerland, where England won their second consecutive Euro title by defeating Spain in a penalty shootout. The growing competition among these nations highlights the increasing prominence of women's football in Europe.
