The eagerly awaited Euro 2024 kicks off with an electrifying opening ceremony at the iconic Allianz Arena in Munich on June 14. Germany will face Scotland in the tournament’s inaugural match following the ceremony, which promises to be a tribute to football greatness.
The ceremony will pay homage to legendary German football figure Franz Beckenbauer, with his wife, Heidi, set to present the prestigious Henri Delaunay Trophy to the eventual champions. Alongside her will be German football stalwarts Bernard Dietz and Juergen Klinsmann, adding to the grandeur of the event.
Contrary to past editions, there won’t be live performances during the opening ceremony itself. Instead, a vibrant pre-event concert was held at Stuttgart’s Schlossplatz, featuring a lineup that included SWR DJ, Leony, Topic, Robin Schulz, and Le Shuuk, delighting fans with their music prowess.
For football enthusiasts worldwide, the Euro 2024 Opening Ceremony will commence at 11:30 pm IST. Viewers can catch the live broadcast on the Sony Sports Network, ensuring no one misses the pomp and ceremony of this prestigious occasion. Additionally, the ceremony will be streamed live on the SonyLiv app and website, providing accessible viewing options for fans on the go.
As anticipation mounts and teams prepare for the battles ahead, the Euro 2024 Opening Ceremony promises to set the stage for a month-long festival of football, blending tradition with modernity in one of Europe’s footballing heartlands.
