UEFA said: “UEFA together with the 12 host cities is currently working on four operational scenarios for UEFA Euro 2020 (full stadium; 50-100% capacity with various mitigation measures; 20-30% capacity with various mitigation measures; and behind closed doors).

Each host city together with UEFA will select 2-3 scenarios and develop plans accordingly in the coming weeks. A decision on which scenario will be applied individually in each city during the tournament will be made in March.”

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the European Championship was postponed for one year and will be held from June 11 to July 11, 2021. The 12 host cities are due to be including London, Munich, Rome, Copenhagen, Bucharest, Amsterdam, Dublin, Bilbao, Budapest, Saint Petersburg, Glasgow and Baku.
