Up first is SPARK:York, which will be showing games on its big screen. Fans can watch the football on tables accommodating parties of up to six people, which can be booked in advance here.

Fans at SPARK will still be able to purchase from the on-site food vendors, along with the variety of different drinks options.

Whilst the majority of group-stage games will be shown without commentary, each England and Scotland game will play the live commentary - with doors opening one hour prior to kick off for each.

Emily Youngson, events coordinator at SPARK, said: "Our aim is to create an inclusive and relaxed environment where everyone can come together to enjoy the game, celebrate each goal, and soak in the excitement.

"Whether you're a die-hard fan or just love the atmosphere, we welcome you to join us and cheer on your team!"
