The BBC and ITV have confirmed a new agreement with UEFA that will see the broadcasters share the rights to Euro 2024 and Euro 2028.
The Championships, along with the forthcoming World Cup, are deemed "listed events" by the government, meaning that they must be broadcast for free to UK viewers via one of the traditional terrestrial broadcasters rather than by the likes of Sky or BT.
As with previous tournaments, the BBC and ITV will share matches equally up until the final, which will be aired by both broadcasters.
"The BBC has proven time and again that we have the ability to bring the biggest sporting events to the widest audience," said Barbara Slater, director of BBC Sport.
"The previous UEFA European Championships were a huge success so we're delighted that we've completed this deal for the next two tournaments that we hope will provide even more memorable moments for viewers."
Niall Sloane, ITV's head of sport, commented: "This deal keeps the Euros available on free to air television for viewers for the coming years.
"Having delivered the biggest ever UK single channel football audience of 27.6 million at last year's Euros, for England's semi-final victory over Denmark, we're looking forward to bringing to the widest audiences the very best coverage of tournaments that have such broad appeal."
Euro 2024 will be hosted by Germany from June 14 to July 14, 2024, while Euro 2028 will either take place in Turkey or across the UK and Ireland.
