How can you get a ticket to watch England play Denmark in the Euro 2020 semi-final?

Thousands of England fans will be hoping to secure tickets to what could be a historic semi-final at Wembley after the Three Lions defeated Ukraine in Rome on Saturday.

Gareth Southgate’s side will face Denmark on Wednesday as they aim to reach their first major tournament final since 1966.

Here we take a look at how Three Lions fans can purchase tickets for what could be one of the most significant matches in the history of English football.

Are tickets still available?

The FA has said the England Supporters Travel Club will have an allocation of nearly 8,500 tickets for the game, but they are working with UEFA to “finalise the total allocation and secure more tickets”.

When will the tickets go on sale?

8,438 members who were successful for tickets in the original 2019 application process, and did not choose to return them, will be given access to the sale on Sunday.

The remaining tickets will be made available on Monday for the nearly 6,000 members who either were successful in the 2019 application but requested a refund, or those who were unsuccessful in the ballot.

Is there any other way of securing tickets?

All tickets for the games are sold via the UEFA ticket portal and both England’s semi-final and the final are marked as sold out.

However, tickets are reportedly being sold on reselling websites for thousands of pounds – despite UEFA’s bid to ban the resale of tickets for above face value.

Tickets for the Italy v Spain semi-final at Wembley are available and cost at least €345 (£296).

Where else can you watch the match?

The game will be broadcast on either BBC or ITV, kicking off at 8pm.

Can Danish fans travel here?

Denmark is currently on the UK’s amber list which means that those currently in Denmark will not be able to attend the game.

The rules surrounding amber countries mean people arriving into England must quarantine at home for 10 days and take COVID tests twice while in isolation.

Those looking to use the government’s Test to Release scheme to leave quarantine earlier are also out of luck, as tests have to be taken on day five after arrival in the UK.

What about Danes living in the UK?

The Danish FA has said its allocation of 5,000 tickets to the game will be sold to Danes living in the UK, adding: “DB has sent national team jerseys and flags to Wembley to Danes living in England, so they can be well dressed for the semi-finals.”

What about the other semi-final?

Italy and Spain will play each other in the other semi-final, also to be held at Wembley.

Both countries are on the amber list, although the Balearic Islands in Spain are on the green watchlist meaning travellers from there could enter England if they take a COVID test on or before day two after they arrive and only have to
quarantine if it is positive.

The Italian FA said its allocation of 6,400 tickets will be sold to fans living in the UK or Ireland.

What about the final?

The arrangement for the final is different with supporters of countries not on the green list allowed to travel subject to strict restrictions.

There were suggestions UEFA, European football’s ruling body, was pushing for 2,500 guests to attend the competition’s final on July 11 without having to comply with the usual border restrictions.

According to the Danish FA, 1,000 fans from countries in the final – except England – can get into the stadium if they travel in a strict bubble, entering and leaving the country on the same day on a chartered aircraft.
