Piccadilly Gardens is set to be transformed into a ‘festival of football’ for the UEFA Women’s Euros for the whole of July. The tournament starts on July 6, with Manchester being among the host cities taking on the matches.
In fact, the very first match of the competition takes place at Old Trafford, with England taking on Austria in the first match of Group A. Matches will be screened in the Gardens, along with a host of other activities going on every day of the tournament.
There will be food and drinks stalls on hand, along with football-themed activities and face painting from Euros sponsor Starling Bank, and football taster sessions. The activities will start at 11am until 4pm each day from 6 July to the final on July 31.
