This new identity encourages individuals to 'rise to the challenge and move with energy in moments that matter.' This ethos resonates perfectly with the Lucozade EURO2024 Fanzone, where enthusiasts gather to celebrate football with boundless energy and pride.
Tickets for England games are available at just £4+bf, each when you purchase a group games ticket, or £5 individually, and are also free for all the additional group stage matches.
