UEFA and the Association of German Transport Companies (VDV) have claimed a first by striking a partnership that will lead to the introduction of ‘KombiTickets’ for Euro 2024.

Germany is staging the national team tournament from June 14 to July 14, with sustainability high on the agenda for organisers. The KombiTicket venture intends to transform the traditional match ticket into a 36-hour ticket that provides access to a host city’s transport infrastructure, as well as entry to the stadium itself.

The KombiTicket will be valid from 6am on the day of a match through to 6pm the following day across the entire transport network, including far beyond the borders of the respective venues into the surrounding areas and neighbouring towns. Match ticket holders will be informed on how to obtain the 36-hour travel pass ahead of the tournament.
