Fifty-seven days and counting until Euro 2012 kicks off in Poland and Ukraine. While we wait, here's a guide to the eight stadiums set for use in the tournament.

The first game is scheduled for June 8 in Warsaw's National Stadium. The final is scheduled for Olympic Stadium in Kiev.

We have all the info you need for both of those, as well as the other six stadiums that will host group and knockout matches.

The showpiece of Euro 2012, Olympic Stadium is set to host three Group D matches, a quarterfinal and the final on July 1.

The Group D matches will be held June 11 (Ukraine-Sweden), June 15 (England-Sweden) and June 19 (France-Sweden). The quarterfinal will be held June 24.

Olympic Stadium, which opened in 1923, was closed for renovations from 2008-11. Pop singer Shakira opened the renovated stadium with a concert on Oct. 9, 2011, and the first match was a 3-3 friendly draw between Ukraine and Germany.

Renovations included a completely rebuilt lower tier, a new west stand with press area and a roof covering all seating areas.

Warsaw's National Stadium was built specifically for Euro 2012. Construction began in 2008 after the demolition of the old Stadion Dziesieciolecia and finished—after several delays—in January 2012.

The first match held at the new stadium was a scoreless draw between Poland and Portugal in a friendly international.

In addition to the eye-catching facade lighting, National Stadium features modern amenities like a heated pitch, a moveable roof and underground parking.

It will host Euro 2012's opening match—between Poland and Greece—on June 8. Two more Group A matches will be played there, along with a quarterfinal and semifinal.
