The mini-tournament will be hosted by Serbia.

The venue for the final tournament of Euro-2022/2023 indoor soccer among under-19 teams was determined to be Poreč (Croatia). In addition to the hosts, Croatia, seven national teams will participate in the finals, which will become known after the second qualification round, scheduled to conclude by March 26, 2023. The format of the final tournament remains the same: eight participants will play in two groups of four teams each, with the top two from each group advancing to the semifinals.

The inaugural European Championship for youth indoor soccer took place in Rijeka in 2019, and the second edition was held in Hain in 2022 — both times (2019, 2022) Spain's team emerged as champions. The second championship was initially planned for 2021 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Ukraine national team participated in both final tournaments. In 2019, Vitaliy Odegov's wards secured third place in their group, and in 2022 they were eliminated in the semifinals.
