The 2018 UEFA Super Cup will be played at Tallinn's Lilleküla Stadium on 15 August next year.

The game will be the first European club final held in Estonia, which did host the 2012 UEFA European Under-19 Championship. The year 2018 also marks the centenary of the creation of the Republic of Estonia. The decision was made at a UEFA Executive Committee meeting in Athens in September 2016.

Tallinn follows in the footsteps of Prague (2013), Cardiff (2014), Tbilisi (2015), Trondheim (2016) and Skopje (2017), as cities to be awarded the UEFA Super Cup since the fixture switched from its permanent home of Monaco.
