The 2011 UEFA Europa League Final will be played at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland, on 18 May 2011.[1][2] Due to UEFA rules against corporate sponsorship outside the federation, the stadium will be referred to as the "Dublin Arena" for the final, though the official name is the Aviva Stadium.

The game's location was decided on 29 January, 2009, from a shortlist of either the Emirates Stadium or the Aviva Stadium. When Wembley Stadium was announced as the Champions League host for 2011, the Emirates became ineligible as the same nation cannot host the two tournaments in the same year.[3]

The winners will play against the winners of the 2011 UEFA Champions League Final in the 2011 UEFA Super Cup.
