Record-Breaking Attendance and Enthusiastic Support

Euro 2025 has not only been a showcase of top-tier women's football but also a record-setting event in terms of fan engagement. With a total attendance surpassing 623,088, the tournament has outdone the previous record set in England in 2022. This is particularly notable given Switzerland's smaller stadium capacities compared to giants like Wembley.

Carnival Atmosphere in Switzerland

The host nation, Switzerland, transformed into a football carnival, with fans from over 160 nationalities flocking to enjoy the matches and the scenic beauty of the country. The fan zones and pre-match walks became centers of celebration, with fans creating a vibrant atmosphere that extended into the stadiums.

Sustainable and Inclusive Tournament

Switzerland's commitment to sustainability was evident with initiatives like free public transport for ticket holders and health campaigns such as UEFA's 'Get Trained Save Lives', which trained over 10,000 visitors in CPR.

Impact on Women's Football in Switzerland

The tournament has been a pivotal moment for women's football in Switzerland, inspiring a surge in interest and participation. The Swiss FA aims to double the number of women and girls playing football by 2027, a goal that seems more achievable post-Euro 2025.

Culinary Rivalries and Cultural Exchange

Adding a unique flavor to the festivities, fans engaged in friendly 'food wars', showcasing their national cuisines through witty signs and banter, which added to the cultural richness of the tournament.

Legacy of Euro 2025

As the tournament concludes, the legacy it leaves behind is clear. Euro 2025 has not only been a celebration of football but also a beacon of progress for women's sports globally, setting new standards for future tournaments.
