They think it's all under...

The brilliant Brunel Museum in Rotherhithe has announced that it's screening a handful of Euro 2024 matches in its stunning Victorian tunnel shaft. The subterranean space was dug as part of the construction of Mark and Isambard Brunel's Thames Tunnel, which opened in 1843, and now serves as the leg of the London Overground between Rotherhithe and Wapping. The shaft itself opened to the public in 2011 — with a fancy staircase being added in 2016 — and serves as a wonderful underground space for concerts, talks and the like.

For a handful of the Euros games, the museum is erecting a big screen projector in the tunnel shaft (it's also promising 'big sound' — indeed, we imagine the sound down there could be VERY big). There'll also be a pop-up bar with Ansbach & Hobday beers and wine, and fun, games and raffles with prizes.

Plus something else very special — a guaranteed seat.
