The host cities Warsaw, Gdańsk, Wrocław, Poznań, Kiev, Lviv are all popular tourist destinations , apart from Donetsk and Kharkiv (the latter having replaced Dnipropetrovsk as a host city in 2009).[25] The bid package requires the expansion and modernisation of roads and transport links.[26]
The obligatory improvement of the football infrastructure includes the building of new stadiums: Six of the eight venues are brand new stadia currently being constructed ready to open in advance of the tournament; the remaining two (in Poznań and Kharkiv) have undergone major renovations to improve them.[27][28] Three of the stadia will fulfill the criteria of UEFA's highest category stadiums.
