Government Makes Last-Minute Pub Rule Change Before England vs Norway
Ministers said the blanket extension gives fans certainty to watch the full match and covers any further England games if kick-off is delayed.
- On Saturday, the Government confirmed pubs in England and Wales can remain open until 30 minutes after the final whistle for tonight's quarter-final match against Norway, ensuring fans watch the entire game.
- Concerns regarding potential weather delays at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, prompted the decision, as officials seek to ensure supporters can watch the full match regardless of any schedule changes.
- Policing Minister Sarah Jones stated, 'England fans deserve the chance to watch every minute of the quarter-final together, and that is exactly what our extension guarantees,' citing weather delays during the previous Mexico match.
- Individual venues no longer need to apply for later hours, as the blanket extension applies to tonight's match and any future games, including a potential final, according to the Home Office.
- The National Weather Service warns of a 'hazardous heat threat' in Miami, with storms possibly impacting kick-off as heat-related illness risks could increase for players and spectators alike.
