Bulgaria has been chosen to host the 2028 UEFA European Under-19 Championship, the Bulgarian Football Union said. The decision was made following a vote by the members of the UEFA Executive Committee at a meeting held at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, on Wednesday.

Bulgaria will stage the tournament matches across four venues:

- Hristo Botev Stadium in Plovdiv
- Lokomotiv Stadium in Plovdiv
- Beroe Stadium in Stara Zagora
- Georgi Benkovski Stadium in Pazardzhik

Plovdiv will serve as the main hub of the championship, hosting the training camps and accommodations for the national youth teams that qualify for the finals. Bulgaria’s own U19 squad will also take part in the tournament, with its spot guaranteed as the host nation.
