2023 Champions League Final in Istanbul
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 organized 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 Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey 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 because of the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe, the scheduled hosts for subsequent finals were shifted back a year, and the Allianz Arena in Munich was assigned the 2023 final.[1] When the 2021 final, which had been scheduled to be played in Istanbul, also had to be relocated due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey, the 2023 final was given to Istanbul instead; Munich will now host the 2025 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.
