The 2022 UEFA Europa Conference League Final will be the final match of the 2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League, the first season of Europe's tertiary club football tournament organised by UEFA. It will be played on 25 May 2022 at the Arena Kombëtare in Tirana, Albania,[1][2] between Italian club Roma and Dutch club Feyenoord Rotterdam.

The winners will qualify to enter the group stage of the 2022–23 UEFA Europa League, unless they have already qualified for the Champions League or Europa League through their league performance (in which case the access list will be rebalanced).
