BBC News coverage will be led by Sports Editor Dan Roan in Paris, with correspondents travelling with the three home nations teams. We will provide comprehensive news coverage across BBC outlets on TV, radio and online for audiences in the UK and around the world.
In addition to match coverage, audiences can expect the BBC to provide all the latest tournament news as well as coverage of what’s happening away from the football field.
UK coverage will include reports and updates on the BBC News Channel with Sportsday live from Paris; BBC Breakfast with Sally Nugent will provide all the latest news; daily BBC One news bulletins; news bulletins and summaries on Radio 1, Radio 2, Radio 3 and Radio 4 and 5 live; plus dedicated reports and updates across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales. There will also be comprehensive coverage on social media, blogs and on-demand video available on the BBC News website and app.
The BBC’s international 24-hour TV news channel, BBC World News, will bring global audiences daily sporting analysis and news coverage from their roster of football experts for Sport Today, with correspondents on location to capture pre- and post-match interviews. Dan Walker will present 10 dedicated Euro 2016 episodes of Football Focus on World News with insight from BBC pundits, and interviews direct from the team camps. Reporters Steve Crossman and John Bennett will be on location to capture player and manager reaction to the games, and all the gossip from behind the scenes.

BBC World Service languages will be bringing the experiences of fans to our global audience on social media alongside interviews with big-name players in their own language – which proved a winning combination in the World T20 in India.
