Women's Euros Roadshow

A festival of football will be coming to Manchester celebrating the countdown to the UEFA Women’s EURO 2022 tournament this summer.

Setting up in Cathedral Gardens on Saturday, 28 May, the free roadshow will be a special festival of football, fitness and music, giving families the opportunity to get involved in one of the most exciting sporting events of the summer.

Manchester is one of ten host cities taking part in the roadshow which over the course of 43 days will travel more than 800 miles across the country.

It will kick off on May 21 in Sheffield and will finish on July 2 in London, just days before the official start of the tournament.

Leaving a lasting legacy for the women’s game is one of the key goals of UEFA Women’s EURO 2022, and events like the roadshow will be key in helping to introduce more people to the women’s game and to create incredibly memories for people who take part.

The roadshow will offer visitors an introduction to football, with a chance to learn new football skills and tricks as well as try matchday presenting and interviewing in a special BBC studio.

It will also feature live music from local artists and a showpiece football pitch, alongside the opportunity to get a picture with the trophy itself.

There will also be lots of exciting opportunities to meet legends from the women’s game, take part in interactive challenges and find out more about getting involved in grassroots football, the tournament, and how to purchase tickets for the tournament.
