Martin Hausleitner, EHF Secretary General, said: "The high interest from our Member Federations in hosting the EHF EUROs in 2034 confirms the continuous appeal of our flagship national team event to promote and develop handball across Europe. The EHF is proud to not only see federations expressing their interest, which have a long and rich tradition of hosting, but with Faroe Islands and Luxembourg also two which have never hosted an EHF EURO before. The line-up of hosts until 2032 is very strong, and 2034 will be no difference in this regard."
Following the bid timeline, the 11 federations have until 1 March 2027 to submit an official bid. The bids will then be evaluated, and the EHF EUROs 2034 will be awarded by the EHF Congress which takes place on 18 September 2027 in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
According to an earlier decision by the EHF Executive Committee the 2034 European Championships will include quarter-finals as part of the match schedule.
