Three Lions In Our Church

We are pleased to confirm that we have made arrangements to screen Saturday’s Euro 2024 Quarter Final between England and Switzerland at the festival.

The game will be shown on a large screen TV in one of our marquees.

The Hootles will play immediately after the conclusion of the match. Should the match go to extra time, we will stay open later.

For non-football fans, there will be plenty of space elsewhere in the festival grounds away from the screening.
