The European Aquatics Men’s Champions League Final Four, the highest event in the clubsâ
water polo calendar, will take place in Malta from 5th to 7th June 2024. This prestigious
competition, which Malta will host for the next three years, is not just a sporting event but a
significant milestone that will shape the island’s sports culture and infrastructure, leaving a
lasting legacy.
The tournament will showcase top European water polo teams in high-stakes matches,
including two semi-finals and two finals at the National Pool Complex in Tal-Qroqq.
Competing teams include the record-holding Pro Recco (ITA), the reigning European
champions for the third consecutive year; Novi Beograd (SRB), runners-up in the last two
editions and hosts of the previous three Final Eight tournaments; Ferencvaros (HUN), the
2019 champions; and Olympiacos, the Greek powerhouse and two-time Champions League
winners.
As part of the event, a sports village will be established at the venueâs entrance to enhance
the spectatorsâ experience. The village will open at 17:00, while the first semifinal will kick off
at 19:00 and the second semifinal at 21:00. The third and fourth place and the grand final will
be played on 7th June at the same times.
The Ministry responsible for Sport and the Aquatic Sports Association have expressed keen
interest in organising this event. Their successful bid for the 2024 to 2026 editions is a
testament to Maltaâs growing prowess in the sport on an international level. The commitment
to host such a high-profile tournament underscores Maltaâs ambition to cement its position
in sports tourism and increase its visibility within the global sporting community.
The event will be broadcast across various international television networks and amplified
through strong social media engagement, ensuring a broad European audience. Already, five
international broadcasters have confirmed that they will be transmitting the event.
The European Aquatics Men’s Champions League Final Four is not just an opportunity for
sports fans to witness top-tier water polo. It’s a chance for the local community to be part of
an international event, to feel the excitement, and to contribute to its success. Volunteers
and local businesses, this is your moment to shine and show your support for the sport and
your community!
