Twickenham Stadium in London (UK) will host the 2021 Heineken Champions Cup and Challenge Cup finals with a maximum of 10,000 spectators, EPCR announced on 30/04/2021. The Challenge Cup final is scheduled for Friday 21/05 at 20:00 local time (21:00 CET) and that of the Champions Cup on Saturday 22/05/2021 at 16:45 (kick-off in local time, 17:45 CET).

"Marseille (FRA) had been initially due to stage the finals, but restrictions put in place to limit the transmission of Covid-19 made it impractical to accommodate all ticket holders and the matches have been deferred to 2022 as a consequence. The finals will return to London in 2023 when they will be played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium," explained the EPCR.

"Plans are also advanced for the 2021-22 season with confirmation that 24 clubs - including eight representatives from each of the Gallagher Premiership, TOP 14 and Guinness PRO14 - will once again contest the Heineken Champions Cup. Further details regarding the formats and key dates for EPCR's tournaments will be communicated as soon as practicable," added the EPCR.
