Description

In October 2023, the UK and Ireland successfully secured the rights to host UEFA EURO 2028. The tournament will take place in England, Scotland, Wales and Republic of Ireland over 31 days in June and July, and will attract the attention of the sporting and major event communities, the media, and the public at large across the UK & Ireland, Europe and the World. A projected 1 million international visitors will visit the UK & Ireland during the tournament. Delivery Partners are committed to evaluating the impacts of the tournament to evidence the value of their investment and the benefits which will accrue throughout the tournament hosting period. Delivery Partners are now seeking to appoint a supplier who will be responsible for evaluating the benefits and impacts of the tournament from 2026-2030.
