The draw for the UEFA EURO 2020 final tournament took place at ROMEXPO in Bucharest from 18:00 CET on Saturday 30 November 2019.

Initially planned to open in Rome on 12 June 2020, UEFA EURO 2020 was postponed in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 outbreak. Now taking place from 11 June to 11 July 2021, all 12 host cities will stage the same fixtures as originally planned.

The group stage runs – with up to four matches a day – until 23 June (last matches in each group played simultaneously). The top two in each group and the four best runners-up progress to the knockout stage.
