The Summer Stars event will feature some of the most impressive players from the Euro 2020 Championship competition. There will be sizable upgrades given out based on these high-stakes performances, which should have a massive impact in the final months of the FUT 21 cycle.

Based on the live countdown in the FIFA 21 Ultimate Team loading screen, we can expect to see the Summer Stars promotion go live beginning Friday, 2nd July 2021 at 6 pm (BST). At this point, it’s unclear how long the Summer Stars event will run.
