Conference League Final, UEFA Delegation Arrives in Tirana

A UEFA delegation will arrive in Tirana this Monday to start a three-day inspection visit in the framework of organizing the final of the UEFA Europa Conference League, which will be played in Tirana on May 25. 

In fact, UEFA has continuously sent its representatives to Albania since November last year onwards to check all the airport infrastructure, roads, entrances and exits to the city, the hotel, the areas where the finalist teams will train, the areas where the fans of the teams will be gathered as well as the adaptation of the stadium for the final. 

As it is known, on the day of the final, a large number of fans and officials are expected to arrive in Tirana, but also personalities, and the entire infrastructure must be ready to receive a large influx of people. 

This is the third inspection visit of the working group set up by UEFA for the organization of the Conference League final, which consists of 61 people. Initially, there will be an inspection at Rinas Airport with representatives of the Civil Aviation and the State Police and then there will be meetings with representatives of the Municipality of Tirana regarding the squares that will be determined to gather fans, parking lots, facilities to be created, as well as the roads that will be blocked on the day of the final.

Of course, a lot of attention will be on the "Air Albania" stadium and the work that needs to be done there to adapt every detail to the requirements of UEFA. An important aspect is the creation of all the conditions to meet the criteria of the television broadcaster. 

Also, part of this group will be representatives of the event sponsors, who come to see the opportunity to organize promotional activities during the days before the finals. In this visit will be discussed the organization of volunteers who will be engaged for this major event. 

There will be a final inspection visit in March and then field work will begin to prepare for the final.
