Details regarding ticket sales for the 2026 Super Cup are expected to be announced by UEFA in the second half of June. A specific date for the start of ticket sales has not yet been announced.

A fan festival for the general public will be set up in the heart of Salzburg's Old Town, on Residenzplatz. Visitors can expect a diverse programme with football, cultural and entertainment elements, UEFA partner activities and trophy displays. The fan festival will take place on Tuesday 11 August 2026, from 10:00 to 22:00, and on Wednesday 12 August 2026, from 10:00 to 17:00.

In addition, on the day of the final (12 August 2026), two central fan meeting points will be organised for supporters of both finalists. Kapitelplatz and Volksgarten will serve as gathering points from which fans can proceed together to the Red Bull Arena and experience a European tournament atmosphere before the match.

What is the UEFA Super Cup?

The UEFA Super Cup is the traditional contest between the winners of the UEFA Champions League and the winner of the UEFA Europa League.

From 1973 to 1999, the winner of the European Cup/UEFA Champions League initially played against the winner of the Cup Winners' Cup, and later, from 2000 onwards, against the winner of the UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League.

If the score is tied after regular time, there is no extra time - instead, the match goes directly to a penalty shootout. The last time this happened was in 2025 when Paris Saint-Germain overcame a 0-2 deficit against Tottenham Hotspur in Udine, winning on penalties after a 2-2 draw.

Salzburg with own UEFA Super Cup logo

The unique logo was developed in collaboration with UEFA and puts Salzburg, the host city, front and centre. Hohensalzburg Fortress, seen from the distinctive perspective of the Bürgermeisterloch, serves as the inspiration. Clean lines and a dynamic design combine cultural heritage with innovative spirit. Colorful accents convey sporting enthusiasm and underscore the UEFA Super Cup as a European highlight.
