The Euro 2024 logo includes an interesting easter egg(Image credit: Getty Images)
While most of the focus at Euro 2024 has been on the football, on the myriad of stunning long-range goals, entertaining matches, own goals and – in the case of England – drab goalless draws, those with an eye for detail might have noticed something interesting about the tournament logo.
As ever, the European Championship trophy is front and centre in the logo, surrounded by the colours of the different nations competing in Germany this summer.
Below the trophy are the words ‘UEFA Euro 2024, Germany’ in bold white text, seemingly unremarkable. But eagle-eyed fans have picked up on an interesting quirk in the writing.

The ‘o’ in ‘Euro’ is in the shape of the distinctive Olympiastadion roof, a clever touch that adds another element of uniqueness to Euro 2024. That will be the venue for the final next month.
The tournament hashtag on social media, ‘#EURo2024’, also includes a lowercase ‘o’, although the reason for that is not clear. These small details only add to the identity of a tournament, though, and Euro 2024 has largely been a memorable one so far.
Hosts Germany have looked strong, while Spain and Austria impressed in the group stages. England, meanwhile, will hope to be at the Olympiastadion on July 14, with a favourable route to the final on paper.
