The Issue

What is the United Kingdom without Northern Ireland? As a proud constituent territory of the UK, Northern Ireland's absence from the list of hosts for the UEFA Euro 2028, to be staged in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, leaves a void that cannot and should not be ignored. This situation arises from the unfortunate delay and cost overrun associated with the reconstruction of Casement Park in Belfast, depriving our capital city of the opportunity to shine on the international stage once again.

The disappointment is palpable among fans and citizens alike, further compounded by the consolation that Northern Ireland remains a part of the broader tournament spirit only through the symbolic gesture of the draw. But there's a tangible and rewarding solution if only we have the determination to embrace it.

Imagine a modular stadium, inspired by the very same innovative designs successfully employed during the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The proposal is not just possible but practiced. Building such a venue in Belfast would not only bring back our UEFA hosting rights but also kindle pride and a vibrant atmosphere in our city. A modular stadium, by its very nature, can be tailor-made to our needs, ensuring cost-effectiveness, timely assembly, and environmental sustainability.

Consider what this means for Northern Ireland – a chance to renew, to showcase our culture, hospitality, and indomitable spirit to all of Europe and beyond. It's about giving Northern Ireland its rightful place on the international sports stage and fueling our economy through increased tourism and international attention.

Let your voice be a part of this change. By signing this petition, you endorse not just a stadium but a future for Northern Ireland that is as bright and hopeful as the football it could host. Stand with us as we push for a modular stadium construction in Belfast, ensuring a place for Northern Ireland in the UEFA Euro 2028, or even the 2035 FIFA Women's World Cup. Sign the petition today and let us get back what is rightfully ours to host and celebrate!
