2023 UEFA Champions League Final


The 2023 UEFA Champions League Final will be the final match of the 2022–23 UEFA Champions League, the 68th season of Europe's premier club football tournament organised by UEFA, and the 31st season since it was renamed from the European Champion Clubs' Cup to the UEFA Champions League. It will be played at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany in May 2023.
The final was originally scheduled to be played at Wembley Stadium in London, England. However, due to the postponement and relocation of the 2020 final, the final hosts were shifted back a year, with Munich instead hosting the 2023 final.
The winners will earn the right to play against the winners of the 2022–23 UEFA Europa League in the 2023 UEFA Super Cup.

Venue

This will be the second UEFA Champions League final hosted at the Allianz Arena; the first was held in 2012. Overall, it will be the fifth European Cup final to be held in Munich, with the 1979, 1993, and 1997 finals taking place at the Olympiastadion. The final will also be the ninth to take place in Germany, having also taken place in Stuttgart in 1959 and 1988, Gelsenkirchen in 2004, and Berlin in 2015, equalling the record of nine European Cup finals held in Italy and Spain. The Allianz Arena previously hosted matches at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, and will also be a host at the UEFA Euro 2020 and UEFA Euro 2024.

Host selection

An open bidding process was launched on 22 February 2019 by UEFA to select the 2022 and 2023 UEFA Champions League final venues. Associations had until 22 March 2019 to express interest, and bid dossiers had to be submitted by 1 July 2019.
While the bidding associations have not been confirmed by UEFA, the German Football Association was reported to have bid with the Allianz Arena in Munich, should they not be awarded the 2021 final.
The Allianz Arena was selected by the UEFA Executive Committee during their meeting in Ljubljana, Slovenia on 24 September 2019, where the hosts for the 2021 and 2023 UEFA Champions League finals were also appointed.
On 17 June 2020, the UEFA Executive Committee announced that due to the postponement and relocation of the 2020 final, Munich would instead host the 2023 final.
