UEFA overhauls Euro qualifiers and the Nations League: What the new format means for football hospitality

UEFA is planning a fundamental reform of the European Championship qualifiers and the Nations League, to take effect after EURO 2028. The new format is intended to make the competition more intense, reduce the number of meaningless matches and rebalance the international football calendar. For businesses, decision-makers and private hosts, this could result in a revised hospitality calendar.
