Wrapping up the Trophy (Tour). Final stop: 28 May! ;)

Oktober 18th, 2010, UEFA Champions League Trophy Tour, posted by UniCredit

One trophy. Thirty-three days on the road. Twenty-two stops in five countries. Thousands of excited fans. A hugely sucessful road-show event series has come to an end. The UEFA Champions League Trophy Tour presented by UniCredit had Munich, Prague, Warsaw, Bratislava and Vienna under its spell over the past weeks.
It was every fan’s once-in-a-lifetime chance to get really close to the icon of European club football, and to get an idea of what it must feel like to lift the trophy. With the closing event in Vienna on 17 October, the shiny object of desire has left the public stage again. Europe’s football lovers will now have to wait until 28 May for its re-appearance – at the UEFA Champions League Final in London’s legendary Wembley stadium! It remains to be seen which two teams will make it into that decisive match and which one will take home the trophy to their fans in their city.  So, it’s all up to Europe’s top clubs now to decide which city gets to celebrate the trophy in May.
For a glance at how fans in the five Trophy Tour host countries welcomed it, visit our photo/video gallery, and our YouTube channel. We will be uploading more tour material in the upcoming days.
Thanks to all of you who came to see the trophy. We hope you had a fantastic time!

Did you follow the press conference live stream on our facebook fan page? Luís Figo was there, alongside Michael Konsel and Karl-Heinz Riedle. No wonder, the Trophy Tour Village is seing long lines of people queuing to get in. Whether it is to see the UEFA Champions League memorabilia on display, to get up on stage for a personal photo with the trophy, or to meet and greet one of the celebrities at a signature session.
The Austrian blogger team is bustling around the event location, catching the vibes and capturing the special moments for you. Their first videos are already on YouTube – like this one.
Beautiful Vienna is the final stop of this European UEFA Champions League Trohy Tour leg presented by UniCredit. So make sure you make it over there before it all ends on Sunday!
