Watching the Euros Final in Spain

AlbertC

I’m going to be in Spain on Sunday. I’ll have wi-fi access. 

Is there a way to watch the final on a phone/ipad, like a Spanish TV app possibly?

No VPN?

You don't think they'll be showing it somewhere?

A guy in the pub last night was gutted about this - He flies out to Spain on Sunday around 6pm - So effectively little chance of getting to the hotel in time to watch it

I was in France when they were in and won the World Cup. I didn’t have a particular need to hide my Englishness but I was staying on a large campsite and they put up a big TV and so I saw it with a tourist, fairly international crowd. So it was exciting but no mad French fans who were elsewhere getting ready to toot their car horns until 3am. So, if there’s somewhere touristy to see it that’s probably fine.
I do know someone who lives in Spain and travels about (he runs guided tours) so I’ll see if if he knows about an aye yai yai Player.

There are VPN providers who'll gibe you a week's free trial, so that may be the way to go if you don't want to go out and soak up the atmosphere.

Similar story - 2018 WC - Big site further down below Bordeaux, near Arcachon - But we left just after the semi finals - So saw the end of the group stages and all KO matches inc the semi finals Big screen near the bar area- Good atmosphere across all nations across the camp site for all matches - Until our semi final v Croatia - Just about everyone went for Croatia and they certainly let you know it - Scots, Welsh, Irish, French and who ever else was there - Nothing nasty but a bit more than just banter

RTVE , Spanish tv, will be showing it. It will be on everywhere. How do you think you won't get to see it! Or do you want to watch it with English commentary? You would be surprised at the amount of people in Spain who couldn't give a shite about football though.

EricTheWeary

Yes my associate says RTVE, there is an RTVE app and the match should be on channel 1. 
Will have Spanish commentary, would need a VPN and iPlayer or the ITV one for English commentary.

I used the ITV app on my phone with no issues from Ibiza.

You could watch on tv and listen to English commentary on radio

⚽️ Anyone interested? A mate of mine has 2 tickets to the Euro 2024 final match on Sunday in Germany, He bought them months ago on spec for £600 each including hotel and flight tickets, but didn't realise when he bought them that it was on the same day as his wedding! So he is looking for someone to take his place if you are interested? It's at 3pm at Poole Registry office. Bride's name is Nicola, 5'6", quite attractive, has her own income and is quite a good cook apparently…

Ok cheers. Useful to know. 

There’s no TV in the place we’re staying (which wasn’t an issue when we booked). Yes I could go to a bar but given our location I’d probably have to drive and therefore couldn’t drink. 

Watch England in a final without a beer? Unthinkable
