All BBC games will be broadcast on BBC One or BBC Two, BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website and app. The opening weekend offers audiences a first look at all home nations and some of Europe's best players:
- Friday 11 June from 8pm, Turkey v Italy
- Saturday 12 June from 1.15pm, Wales v Switzerland
- Sunday 13 June from 1pm, England v Croatia
- Monday 14 June from 1.15pm, Scotland v Czech Republic
- Monday 14 June 14 from 7.30pm, Spain v Sweden
Fans can experience the Euros in Ultra HD quality live on BBC iPlayer, as part of a trial from the BBC. Viewers with compatible TVs and a high-speed internet connection will be able to watch 22 of the BBC's games in Ultra-High Definition and High Dynamic Range, including the first games in the competition for Wales, England and Scotland.
Unfortunately, ITV's coverage is likely to be limited to HD. ITV Hub, to my knowledge, doesn't have any 4k content.

Why is it still a trial after all this time?
I’d imagine it’s to do with how the BBC funds it. 4K is also just for the big, occasional sporting events, so they wouldn’t make it a permanent fixture. This year we will have 4K on iPlayer for the delayed Euros and Olympics as well as Wimbledon, whereas last year there was nothing. Calling it a “trial” rather than a “service” makes some sense as they’re still trialling HDR standards, too
It could be that if you call something a trial you can claim tax benefits from what you put into it. I only know this from personal experience and it’s only speculation on my part.

It’s about 90 seconds behind the normal HD channel, so don’t watch if you’ve got the windows open and next door are watching the same game,
