Abstract
Every European Football Championship raises a host of important politicalquestions. Euro 2024 in Germany was no exception in this regard, as thiscommentary demonstrates. This roundtable discussion – in form of miniessays – reconsiders this politicized event. Indeed, this collectively writtencommentary involves short, but sharp insights from five scholars aimingto provide a responsive account of politically significant moments ortrends at before, during and in the immediate aftermath of Euro 2024.By exploring important questions relating to, inter alia, nationalism, secur-ity and safety, sustainability, and children’s rights – in Euro 2024’s context –it is hoped that this commentary paper will offer something to futurediscussions concerning Euro 2024, European football and sport mega-events more widely, and, finally, socio-political processes in contemporaryEurope.
