The 2024 UEFA Europa League final will be the final match of the 2023–24 UEFA Europa League, the 53rd season of Europe's secondary club football tournament organised by UEFA, and the 15th season since it was renamed from the UEFA Cup to the UEFA Europa League. It will be held at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland, on 22 May 2024, between Italian club Atalanta and German club Bayer Leverkusen.[2][3]
The winners will earn the right to play against the winners of the 2023–24 UEFA Champions League in the 2024 UEFA Super Cup and the winners of the 2023 Copa Sudamericana in the 2024 UEFA-CONMEBOL Club Challenge. The winners will also qualify to enter the league phase of the 2024–25 UEFA Champions League, unless they have already qualified for the Champions League or Europa League through their league performance (in which case the access list will be rebalanced).
Background
This is Atalanta's first European final. Having lost the 2024 Coppa Italia final, Atalanta failed to win a cup double, but are still seeking a first major title since winning the 1962–63 Coppa Italia. For Bayer Leverkusen, this is their first European showpiece match since losing the 2002 UEFA Champions League final. Having won the 2023–24 Bundesliga title and secured passage to the 2024 DFB-Pokal final, Leverkusen are aiming for a treble.[4]
Previous finals
In the following table, the finals until 2009 were in the UEFA Cup era, and since 2010 in the UEFA Europa League era.
Team | Previous final appearances (bold indicates winners) |
---|---|
Atalanta | None |
Bayer Leverkusen | 1 (1988) |
Venue
Host selection
On 16 July 2021, the UEFA Executive Committee announced that due to the withdrawal of hosting rights for UEFA Euro 2020, the Aviva Stadium in Dublin was given hosting rights for the 2024 final. This was part of a settlement agreement by UEFA to recognise the efforts and financial investment made to host UEFA Euro 2020.[2]
It will be the second time that the Europa League final has been held in the Aviva Stadium, having previously hosted the 2011 final.
