The 2020 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship (also known as UEFA Women's Under-19 Euro 2020) was originally to be held as the 19th edition of the UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship (23rd edition if the Under-18 era is included), the annual international youth football championship organised by UEFA for the women's under-19 national teams of Europe, before being cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe.[1] Georgia, which were selected by UEFA on 9 December 2016, were originally to host the tournament.[2] A total of eight teams were originally to play in the tournament, with players born on or after 1 January 2001 eligible to participate.

The final tournament was originally scheduled to be played between 21 July to 2 August 2020.[3][4] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, UEFA announced on 1 April 2020 that the tournament had been cancelled.[1][5][6]
