Pubs and bars allowed to stay open late during Women's Euros on one condition
Pubs across England and Wales have been granted permission to extend their closing times until 1am if either nation progresses to the semi-finals or final of the UEFA Women's European Championships this July. The Home Office confirmed the extension, pushing back the usual 11pm curfew to allow fans more time to celebrate potential victories. This move comes as part of a provision to relax licensing hours for occasions of "exceptional national significance." England, the defending champions, and Wales, qualifying for the tournament for the first time, both face tough competition in their group, which includes France and the Netherlands. The announcement is being made now ahead of the tournament – in Switzerland from July 2 to 27 – so pubs can sort out stock and staffing. It also gives enough time to arrange the statutory instruments needed potentially to extend opening hours before Parliament's summer recess. Policing minister Dame Diana Johnson said: 'Nothing quite brings people together like watching our national football teams, which is why we want fans to be able to enjoy every minute of these matches. 'We will extend licensing hours should either team progress through the tournament, to allow supporters to watch and celebrate together for longer. 'I want to wish the best of luck to both teams and let's hope for some more memorable nights this summer.' The semi-finals take place on July 22 and July 23 while the final kicks off on July 27. Any home nation glory on the pitch could also see success for the hospitality industry, which has welcomed the move to keep the doors open for longer. Night Time Industries Association chief executive Michael Kill described the extended hours as 'a positive and progressive move that recognises the growing popularity of women's football and its cultural significance across the UK'. He said: 'Much like previous extensions for national celebrations, this decision will give communities the opportunity to come together and celebrate in a safe and responsible way, while also providing a welcome boost to the night-time economy. 'It represents a valuable opportunity for hospitality businesses to maximise trade during a major event – particularly important in today's extremely challenging economic climate.' British Beer and Pub Association chief executive Emma McClarkin said: 'The pub is the home of live sport. 'Nothing compares when it comes to bringing atmosphere and camaraderie to watching the football live, and we expect supporters will be flocking to their local to cheer on our brilliant teams. 'Our sector plays a huge part in boosting community spirit, and extending licensing hours means people can gather for longer and host even more events that cheer on our squads.' Billing the pub as 'the best place to watch the Women's Euros', UKHospitality chief executive Kate Nicholls said: 'The success of the Lionesses, in particular, has captured the heart of the nation and I know communities will be flocking to the pub to cheer on both England and Wales. 'I'm pleased the Government has acted early with this decision, which will help pubs plan their activity during the tournament.' England will be hoping to defend the title they won at Wembley Stadium in July 2022 when they beat Germany in the final. The two home nations will face off during this year's tournament group stages on Sunday 13 July in St Gallen. England will face France on July 5 when Wales will play the Netherlands. On July 9 England will play the Netherlands while Wales's opponents will be the Netherlands. Scotland and Northern Ireland have separate licensing regimes. Sign in to access your portfolio
