On 14 May 2024, Dárdai was named in Hungary's squad for UEFA Euro 2024.[16] In the team's opening match of the tournament, he came on as a 79th minute substitute for Attila Szalai as the Magyars were beaten 3–1 by Switzerland in Cologne.[17] On 19 June, he started against his birth nation Germany in a 2–0 loss in Stuttgart.[18] He again started in the third Group A match against Scotland on 23 June, playing 74 minutes before being replaced by Szalai.[19]
