The French capital is indeed co-hosting the international sporting competition with Germany. On November 5, 2026, the two countries unveiled the cities where the matches will be held. In Germany, teams will face off in Berlin, Cologne and Hamburg. In France, Lyon, Strasbourg and Paris have been selected.
