For the first time ever, the 2026 Champions League final will be held in the 67,000-capacity Puskas Arena, situated in Hungary's capital, Budapest.

The match will kick off at 5pm UK time on Saturday afternoon.
Uefa have said the decision to switch from the usual 8pm kick-off is to "enhance the matchday experience and benefit fans, teams and host cities".
