UEFA Youth League finals: Nyon

The 2024/25 UEFA Youth League finals in the usual four-team format are scheduled to be played on 25 and 28 April at Colovray Sports Centre in Nyon.

Venue: Colovray Sports Centre, Nyon

Capacity: 4,000 (800 seats)  
Opened: 1991

• The Colovray Sports Centre stands opposite UEFA's Swiss headquarters in Nyon on the shores of Lake Geneva. UEFA took over management of the stadium on 1 April 2010.

• Nyon sits at an altitude of 406m and has a population of about 16,000. In winter, it provides a base for winter sports enthusiasts. It is also a summer tourist hot spot thanks to its warm climate, lakeside activities, chateaus, Roman museums and music festivals, which attract the best European bands.

• Opened in 1991, the sports complex is home to Stade Nyonnais from the Challenge League, Switzerland's second tier.

• The stadium staged the 2004 UEFA European Under-19 Championship final, and from 2008 to 2013 hosted the four-team WU17 EURO as well as other UEFA-organised friendly tournaments.  

• The Women's U17 competition is now an eight-team event with varying hosts, but in 2014 the stadium was designated the venue for the first four-sided UEFA Youth League final tournament – a status it has retained (other than in 2023, when matches were played in Geneva). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, ten teams were involved in a delayed August competition that year.
