Pubs, clubs and open spaces in English are gearing up for the Euro 2024 final as fans prepare to watch the Three Lions take on Spain.
Many pubs will be allowed to trade until 1 am on Sunday, thanks to a special licensing agreement, with owners expecting a surge in beer, burger, and pizza sales as fans celebrate the historic moment of the country’s first-ever major tournament final outside of the UK. And, for one, there’s an opportunity to cheer on local hero Jude Bellingham at Musicom, in the West Midlands, with the England v Spain Euro 2024 final set to be screened.
The Himley Hall and Park event, which is organised by Dudley Council as part of the Black Country Festival, will have a huge 45m2 screen in the park to let fans watch the match after the live entertainment has finished. Those attending will be treated to a host of top tribute acts to artists including Tina Turner, Madness, Taylor Swift, Bruno Mars, Michael Buble and Fleetwood Mac from 12 noon to 8pm.
The park will then remain open to ticket holders until the England final finishes, with food and drinks stalls available throughout.
