Categories of requirements for football stadiums set by UEFA
The Santiago Bernabéu Stadium, the home of Real Madrid, has four stars
UEFA stadium categories are categories for football stadiums laid out in UEFA's Stadium Infrastructure Regulations.[1] Using these regulations, stadiums are rated as category one, two, three, or four (renamed from elite) in ascending ranking order. These categories replaced the previous method of ranking stadiums on one to five star scale in 2006.
A stadium must be rated as category four in order to host games in the playoffs of the qualifying stage for the UEFA Champions League, or any game in the main competition.[2] Category four is also required to host any game in the main competition of the UEFA Europa League,[3] UEFA Europa Conference League, UEFA Nations League or the UEFA European Championship final tournament.[4] UEFA does not publish lists of stadiums fulfilling the criteria for any of the categories defined in the UEFA Stadium Infrastructure Regulations.[1]
