We’ve been waiting all year for this to come around – well, two whole years actually: Euro 2024 is nearly upon us and we’ve been thinking about where in Leeds to watch it.
For many people, major tournaments are massive milestones; they become synonymous not only with years but definitive periods in their lives and they’re also one of those rare moments when a nation can all share in genuinely lasting and special memories. Even if it does usually end in heartache…
But not this year, we have faith. England’s squad is one of the best in the entire competition and we’ve come so close in recent years that we’re not just going to settle for expecting the worst.
That being said, you best get plotting out where you want to watch the Euros in Leeds now, and we can help.
4TheFans Fan Park at TESTBED
110 Hunslet Ln, LS10 1ES
