More than 70 British stars are expected to jet out to Italy, including Katarina Johnson-Thompson, Keely Hodgkinson and Zharnel Hughes among others.
However, with just days to go until the event begins, UK TV audiences are facing the prospect of a broadcast blackout.

Is the European Athletics Championships 2024 on TV?
Yes. BBC has struck a late deal to show the European Athletics Championships across their platforms.
Coverage of the European Athletics Championships 2024 will be live on BBC Red Button and BBC iPlayer online.
The Daily Mail first reported on 31st May that the BBC had not secured TV rights for the event despite it being traditionally shown via the broadcaster.
The report suggested the BBC was still in negotiations with rights holders, the European Broadcasting Union, and a deal has now been rubber stamped.
