With UEFA’s Executive Committee set to announce its decision on 3 December 2025 in Nyon, Swizterland, the Polish Football Association has released a promotional video featuring Nawrocka encouraging the governing body to choose Poland.

"Why Poland? After our national team’s historic qualification for the Women’s European Championship, it is time for us to host the tournament," Nawrocka said, adding that staging the event would provide "a major boost" to women’s football in the country and inspire "thousands of girls who dream of a sporting career."

National team captain Ewa Pajor and men’s captain Robert Lewandowski have also lent their support.

Pajor said the women’s game in Poland was "developing rapidly", while Lewandowski highlighted the country’s "renowned hospitality" and track record of hosting major tournaments.

Poland’s bid proposes eight stadiums across seven host cities – Warsaw, Kraków, Gdańsk, Wrocław, Szczecin, Białystok and Zabrze.

Organisers expect record ticket sales of more than 1.1 million and hope the event will be the most watched Women’s Euro to date

The campaign slogan is "#TimeForOurHistory".
