Wetherspoons is making a major change at 788 pubs next week and football fans will love it

WETHERSPOONS is making a major change across hundreds of its pubs next week in a boost for footie fans.

The pub chain is screening Euro 2024 games across 788 of its pubs from June 14, when the competition starts.

However, Spoons has confirmed over 20 of its boozers that don’t have screens won’t be showing matches, as its boss Tim Martin exclusively revealed to The Sun why its prices are so cheap.

A spokesperson previously 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 is taking place in Germany, with the 788 Wetherspoons locations showing England and Scotland’s fixtures.

The Three Lions’ first game is against Serbia on June 16, while the Scots will play the opening game of the tournament on June 14 against Germany.

It comes after the Government confirmed pubs will be allowed to stay open until 1am on match days if either England or Scotland reach the semi-finals of the Euros this summer.

The semi-final stage of this year’s Euros will take place on July 9 and July 10 while the final is on July 14.

Wetherspoons is yet to reveal what its opening hours will be at this stage of the tournament.

Remember you can find your nearest Spoons branch by using the pub chain’s branch locator tool on its website.

You just have to enter your postcode and it tells you where your nearest pub is.

It comes after Wetherspoons revealed it has slashed the price of four breakfast menu items across 78 London pubs.

Punters will be able to snap up savoury dishes for £2.99 while the chain also has a tea, coffee or hot chocolate, with two slices of toast with jam or marmalade deal on for £2.49.

Anyone wanting to buy just toast and spread will pay £1.99.

Spoons isn’t the only pub chain trying to entice customers in for the Euros either.

Greene King is giving away free pints at 800 of its bars before Scotland’s game against Germany next Friday.

The offer is available between 6pm and 7pm at 800 of the pub company and brewer’s pubs in England, Scotland, and Wales.

Boozers can choose from a variety of drinks, including pints of Greene King’s Level Head and Flint Eye, as well as ciders, spirits, and soft drinks.

To claim your free drink, you just have to say “For Pub and Country” at any participating pub.

If you’re not sure whether your local Greene King boozer is running the free drink offer, it might be worth calling ahead to double-check.
