UEFA Cup[]
1997–2005[]
While the tournament was first inaugurated in 1971, the first UEFA CUP logo was used during the 1998 UEFA Cup Final between SS Lazio and FC Internazionale Milano. It depicted three stick figures, akin to the ones seen at the base of the actual UEFA Cup.
2005–2009[]
In 2005, the logo underwent a major change. The UEFA Cup itself is now the center point of the logo (which would be for its successor as well), the UEFA logo became larger and the UEFA CUP wordmark has been shortened to just "CUP" and changed color to green.
UEFA Europa League[]
2009–2012[]
In 2009, the UEFA Cup was renamed as UEFA Europa League, and an entirely new logo and identity was introduced. The logo now consists of a yellow circle with red curves forming the UEFA Cup, with, accompanying the familiar UEFA arch, the words "Europa League" at the bottom. The UEFA Intertoto Cup was defunct because of this so-called new competition's formation. The logo was retired after the 2009-12 cycle after the introduction of the 2012 UEFA logo.
2012–2015[]

In 2012, the logo was revamped, adding more 3D effects as well as some other minor modifications, including the updated UEFA logo.
2015–2021[]
In 2015, Red Bee Media designed a new logo for the UEFA Europa League. The words are in a different font and the cup was redrawn more differently to resemble the original UEFA Cup. The logo's first appearance was on 22 June 2015 at the draw of the 2015-2016 season.
2021–2024[]
In 2021, Turquoise Branding designed a new logo for the UEFA Europa League, along with the UEFA Europa Conference League. The UEFA Cup was redrawn entirely from scratch for the first time since the tournament became the Europa League in 2009. The arches on the side of the trophy are emboldened to match its 3rd-tier equivalent.
2024–present[]
For the 2024-27 cycle, the Europa League introduced a new logo. With a new, even more edgier symbol, and a new wordmark that has some resemblance to the first Europa League logo. The "energy waves" used during the 2021-24 cycle will still be used for the opening sequence as well as its visual identity despite the logo change.
