The 2027 UEFA European Under-21 Championship (also known as UEFA Under-21 Euro 2027) will be the 26th edition of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship (29th edition if the Under-23 era is also included), the biennial international youth football championship organised by UEFA for the men's under-21 national teams of Europe. The tournament will be hosted by Albania and Serbia. A total of 16 teams will play in the final tournament. Players born on or after 1 January 2004 are eligible to participate.

As with previous Under-21 Championships held one year prior to the Olympic Games, this tournament will serve as European qualifying for the 2028 Summer Olympics. Four eligible teams will compete for qualifying for the men's football tournament of the 2028 Summer Olympics, where they will be represented by their under-23 national teams with a maximum of three overage players allowed.

England are the two-time defending champions, having defeated Germany in the 2025 final and Spain in the 2023 final.
