The EHF confirmed playing times for the men’s European League Finals in Hamburg and both Champions League Final Four events. The participating clubs were still to be determined, but supporters could now plan around the published weekend schedules.

In Budapest on 6 and 7 June, and Cologne on 13 and 14 June, the semi-finals will begin at 15:00 and 18:00 local time on Saturday. The bronze-medal match and final retain those same times on Sunday.

Hamburg’s event on 30 and 31 May follows a different Saturday arrangement to avoid simultaneous play with the football Champions League final. The announcement concerned match timing across the three venues and did not identify the clubs that would qualify for those events.
