Belfast’s Casement Park and Everton’s Bramley-Moore Dock. Glasgow’s Hampden Park, Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, and English venues St James’ Park, Villa Park, the Etihad Stadium, and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium are also on the list. Dublin’s Aviva Stadium has also made the final shortlist.
The bid is backed by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar, Scotland’s First Minister Humza Yousaf, and Wales’ First Minister Mark Drakeford, all describing it as the biggest sporting event our islands have ever jointly staged.
