With another unforgettable summer of international sport just around the corner, fans across Manchester are already deciding where to watch the action unfold.
Whether you’re searching for a lively fan zone, giant outdoor screens, great food and drinks, or simply the perfect atmosphere to cheer on England, three of Manchester’s most popular venues are gearing up for what promises to be a memorable season.
Courts Club, The Lawn Club and Stables Tavern are all preparing for a packed schedule of live sport, offering supporters a variety of ways to enjoy every goal, celebration and dramatic moment this summer.
Watch England Matches in Manchester at Courts Club
Located in St John’s, Courts Club is set to become one of the city’s premier destinations for sports fans thanks to its impressive outdoor fan zone.
Home to the biggest outdoor screen in Manchester, alongside a large indoor screen, Courts Club is creating a festival atmosphere for supporters throughout the tournament.
Sponsored by Aperol, the venue’s Summer of Sport programme will feature pre-match quizzes, Bocce ball competitions, DJs, entertainment and giveaways. Fans can also enjoy Aperol’s half-time and full-time Aperidisco celebrations after every major match.
Food will be provided by The Dugout, serving street food sharing platters designed to keep supporters fuelled throughout the action.
A huge stretch tent and outdoor heaters mean the venue is prepared for Manchester’s unpredictable weather, ensuring fans can enjoy the matches whatever the forecast.
Tickets will be required for England’s group-stage fixtures, with entry operating on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Lawn Club and Stables Tavern Ready for Matchday Crowds
Over in Spinningfields, The Lawn Club is once again preparing to welcome thousands of football fans looking for one of Manchester’s most popular outdoor viewing experiences.
The venue’s large outdoor screen, combined with multiple indoor screens, means supporters won’t miss a moment of the action.
Known for its lively atmosphere, The Lawn Club will combine live football with DJs, food vendors, cold drinks and a dedicated fan zone environment.
Matchday tickets for England group games also include a complimentary first drink, making it an attractive option for groups looking to make a full day of it.
Meanwhile, Stables Tavern offers a more traditional pub atmosphere for supporters wanting to enjoy the games in a relaxed setting.
Located on Grape Street, the venue will screen every England fixture across both of its viewing rooms, while other group-stage matches will be shown throughout the tournament.
Unlike some larger fan zones, no tickets or advance bookings are required, allowing football fans to simply turn up, grab a seat and enjoy the action.
Visitors can enjoy a rotating selection of local craft beers, guest ales, classic pub food and outdoor seating before heading inside for kick-off.
With England fans expected to pack venues across the city this summer, organisers are encouraging supporters to plan ahead and secure tickets where required.
Whether it’s the giant screens of Courts Club, the festival atmosphere of The Lawn Club or the traditional pub setting of Stables Tavern, Manchester sports fans will be spoiled for choice when it comes to watching England this summer.
