WETHERSPOONS is making a major change at hundreds of its pubs next month – and some punters are set to miss out.
The vast majority of its 809 pubs across the country will be screening Euro 2024, which starts on Friday, June 14.
Wetherspoons confirmed that only a handful of their boozers across the country would not televise matches due to not having screens.
A spokesman for the boozer said: “Football fans can enjoy the Euro 2024 tournament live at Wetherspoon.
“Wetherspoon’s pubs will be showing all of the fixtures throughout June and July.
“So wherever your local is, you won’t miss out on the action.”
Euro 2024 will take place in Germany, with Spoons showing England and Scotland’s fixtures, including The Three Lions first game again against Serbia on Sunday, June 16.
Fans will also be able to watch all Scotland matches, starting with The Tartan Army’s first game against Germany on Friday, June 14.
It comes after the government revealed pubs will be allowed to stay open until 1am on match days if England or Scotland reach the semi-finals of the Euros this summer.
He is now pressing ahead with the plans, which will give fans an extra two hours of boozing should one or both teams reach the semis or the final in Germany.
The Euro semi-finals are scheduled for Monday, July 9 and Tuesday, July 10.
The final will be held on Sunday, July 14 at the 100,000 seater Olympiastadion in Berlin.
Wetherspoons told The Sun it hadn’t made a final decision on its opening hours.
Below is the full list of Wetherspoons pubs that don’t have screens and won’t be showing any games:
You can find your nearest branch by using the handy store locator on the Wetherspoon website.
Football fans heading to Spoons to watch the games will be able to enjoy a selection of international drinks from the countries competing in the tournament.
Plus, food will be served until 11pm, including burgers, pizzas and a range of small plates.
Prices do tend to vary from pub to pub so it’s always best to check your local before paying.
Wetherspoons decided to show the men’s football World Cup for the first time ever in December 2022.
It also showed the vast majority of the Women’s World Cup last summer.
The popular chain holds events throughout the year when fans can grab some grub and a few drinks for less.
You can usually find details of the events on the website, so keep your eyes peeled.
You can also sometimes get leaflets with deals and events on from your local boozer.
As well as its Autumn festival, Spoons also holds a 12-day Real Ale Festival every Spring.
It usually begins in the final week of March and ends at the beginning of April.
Every year, Spoons holds its Tax Equality Day to highlight the benefits of a permanently reduced tax bill for the pub industry.
It usually takes place in September, and this year it fell on Thursday, September 14.
The chain is also known for its meal deal offers that run all week long.
These include Tuesday’s Steak Club, the Thursday Curry Club and Fish Friday.
