The door for the Republic of Ireland to qualify for the European Championship next summer in Germany is almost closed but Irish football fans who want to attend games at EURO 2024 will the chance to buy tickets next month.

Ticket applications for EURO 2024 will begin on 3 October 2023 through the official UEFA ticketing platform: EURO2024.com/tickets.

More than 80% of 2.7 million tickets will be available for the fans of the participating teams and the general public, with over a million tickets available for less than €60. 

Over 1.2 million tickets will be available in the application period in October.  Probably not as relevant to Ireland fans but a further one million tickets will be on sale – in close cooperation with the national associations concerned – to supporters of the participating teams following the final tournament draw on 2 December this year. 

There is a slim chance that the Boys in Green might make next summer’s party in Germany through the UEFA Nation League play-offs and tickets will be held back for sale to supporters of the national teams that qualify through the play-offs, scheduled for 21 March and 26 March 2024.

A full overview of tickets offered in the different price categories for all matches of UEFA EURO 2024 is available here.

UEFA EURO 2024 will be staged between 14 June and 14 July 2024 in ten German host cities: Berlin, Cologne, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Dortmund, Leipzig, Gelsenkirchen, Stuttgart and Düsseldorf.
