Euro 2024: Confirmed teams and pots
- All 24 teams competing at Euro 2024 have been confirmed
- The final three spots were determined via the play-offs
- The group-stage draw took place on 2 December 2023
The November international break brought about the conclusion of Euro 2024 qualifying, with the group stage draw taking place soon after.
The conclusion of the play-offs in March means the 24 teams competing in Germany this summer are known.
Here's how the Euro 2024 pots and groups look with all participating nations confirmed.
When is Euro 2024?
The tournament will get underway on 14 June 2024 and conclude with the final exactly a month later on 14 July 2024.
The 2023/24 Premier League season ends on 19 May 2024, giving international coaches less than a month with their players to prepare for the continental jamboree.
Who is hosting Euro 2024?
Unlike the previous pan-European iteration of the competition, all 51 games will take place within the same country
Germany will host the tournament next summer. It's the first time the traditional footballing powerhouse has hosted the Euros since reunification, although matches were held in Munich at Euro 2020. Germany also staged the 2006 World Cup with great success.
Ten cities and stadiums have been confirmed as the host venues for Euro 2024. These include Berlin's Olympiastadion, Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena, and Borussia Dortmund's Signal Iduna Park.

Germany | Hungary | Netherlands | Italy |
Portugal | Turkey | Scotland | Serbia |
France | Romania | Croatia | Switzerland |

Hosts Germany were automatically assigned to Pot 1, but the remaining 20 teams who have secured their places at Euro 2024 were placed in pots based on their performance in qualifying.
Germany were joined in the top pot by some of the pre-tournament favourites like France, England, and Portugal, while the impressive performances of Austria, Romania, and Albania in qualifying means they snuck into Pot 2 ahead of the Netherlands and Croatia.
With Italy merely scraping automatic qualification ahead of Ukraine, the defending champions were placed into Pot 4. The Azzurri sit alongside Serbia and Switzerland as well as the three play-off winners.
When is the Euro 2024 draw?
The Euro 2024 group stage draw took place on Saturday 2 December 2023 at 18:00 CET (17:00 GMT).
