Madrid’s Metropolitano to host 2027 final
UEFA has selected Atlético de Madrid’s home ground for the 2026/27 competition decider, scheduled for 5 June 2027.
The Estadio Metropolitano in Madrid has been selected to host the 2026/27 UEFA Champions League final, scheduled for Saturday 5 June 2027, UEFA announced in information published on 2 November 2026.
The final has not yet been played. The venue, home of Atlético de Madrid since 2017, previously staged the Champions League final in 2019.
A second final at Atlético’s ground
The Metropolitano will host its second Champions League final after the 2019 decider, in which Liverpool beat Tottenham 2-0. That result is the stadium’s previous final; the 2027 finalists have not been identified in the supplied information.
UEFA says the 2027 match will conclude the 72nd season of Europe’s top club competition and the 35th since it adopted the Champions League name.
Madrid’s European final history
The 2027 event will be Madrid’s sixth European Cup or Champions League final, according to UEFA. The Santiago Bernabéu previously hosted finals in 1957, 1969, 1980 and 2010.
The Metropolitano replaced the Vicente Calderón as Atlético’s home and opened to the public on 16 September 2017. UEFA describes it as a venue in the Rosas neighbourhood of the Spanish capital.
What happens if the final is level
UEFA’s competition information says that if the teams are level after 90 minutes, the final will go to two 15-minute periods of extra time. If the score remains level, the winner will be decided by a penalty shoot-out.
The 2027 winners will earn a place in the 2027 UEFA Super Cup against the Europa League winners. They will also qualify automatically for the 2027/28 Champions League league phase if they have not secured entry through their domestic competition.
