LET'S GO DUBAI: WHERE TO WATCH EURO 2024

All the action is coming to screens across Dubai as three-time winners Germany stage the UEFA European Championship in 2024. The Euros are heading back to Germany for the first time since reunification, and they’re set to pull out all the stops: running from June 14th to July 14th, the group stage action plays out until June 26th, before the knockout stage begins on June 29th. 


As the host nation, Germany are seeded in Group A, and will play in the opening match – against Scotland – at the Munich Football Arena on Friday, June 14th to kick things off. Berlin's Olympiastadion will host the final on Sunday, July 14th to close out the tournament.


So, where can you catch every minute of the Euros action across the city? We’ve done the hard work for you, and rounded up the top venues - and top deals - that will make this 2024 Euro Cup one to remember.
