You can come and watch England vs Denmark in the second England match of the Euros and have an evening of sports action available at the Urban Food Market. Or if you support other teams, we’re also showing other matches, such as Spain vs Albania on Monday, 24 June, and the Quarter Finals matches happening on Friday, 5 July and Saturday 6 July. Be sure to get here early to secure a great spot in our sports bar, and make sure you can get a bite to eat before watching the big game on our big screen for the Euros.

The Summer 2024 Olympics
Or if football isn’t your thing, you can catch an action-packed day of a live screening of the Olympic Games in July as we’re screening the opening ceremony and other days of the Olympics. With the 26 core sports, such as the traditional track and field events such as athletics, the modern pentathlon and other sports such as swimming competitions, archery, and the gruelling triathlon, you’re bound to see the pinnacle of human athleticism. There are also four new optional sports: breakdancing, skateboarding, sport climbing, and surfing. Some of these sports are taking place for the first time in the Olympics, and they will surely bring a modern twist to this sporting event. So, there’s bound to be something to entice you to watch the Olympics at our version of a sports bar if you’re not interested in the more traditional events in the Summer Olympics.
Olympics Screenings
Wimbledon
We’re also showing days of tennis at the prestigious Wimbledon tournament, with our first Wimbledon live screening taking place on Saturday 6 July. With young players such as Carlos Alcaraz, the current gentlemen’s champion, and Marketa Vondrousova, the current ladies' champion, both being under 25, will they be able to hold on to their champion status or will they be ousted by other fresh new players, or will we see a return of some of the old guard to take the titles? Novak Djokovic has recently announced that he won’t be taking part in Wimbledon, so it’s all up for grabs at this point. Find out about our screenings across Wimbledon, including on Saturday 6 July, and 13 July 2024.
