In Frankfurt, Germany, tens of thousands of England fans are eagerly awaiting the Euro 2024 clash with Denmark. To ensure every Three Lions supporter has a great time, SunSport has created a city guide that includes the best places to have a beer. The financial capital of Germany, Frankfurt is home to Bundesliga giants Eintracht Frankfurt, and expert local fan Basti Roth provided valuable information for England supporters. From fan zones and tourist attractions to traditional German eateries and top pubs, the guide covers everything fans need to know.
The official Frankfurt fan zone for the Euro 2024 games is located along the northern bank of the River Main, offering a spectacular viewing experience with screens displaying all live matches. The area is easily accessible from Frankfurt’s main station and is close to the Deutsche Bank Park stadium where the England vs Denmark game will take place. The fan zone also features food and drink stalls to keep fans energized throughout the matches.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s Deutsche Bank Park stadium, with its 58,000 seating capacity, will host the England vs Denmark game. The stadium underwent a major renovation in 2005, adding a retractable roof and creating a vibrant atmosphere for football matches. The stadium has a rich history, hosting various European teams and memorable matches, including England’s 2006 World Cup opener against Paraguay.
For England fans looking for a gathering spot, both the official fan zone and the historic Romer market square are recommended. The square, surrounded by traditional German buildings, offers a vibrant atmosphere and easy access to the stadium via public transport. Additionally, there are plenty of local pubs and restaurants in the central station area where fans can socialize and enjoy traditional German food and drinks.
For England fans looking to experience true Frankfurt cuisine, local recommendations include trying the traditional dish “Grüner Soße,” a green sauce made from seven different herbs and typically served with potatoes, eggs, or schnitzel. Additionally, fans are encouraged to taste Apfelwein, a local cider-like beverage preferred by many Frankfurters. Frankfurt is a city known for its diverse international influences, with residents identifying more as Frankfurters rather than Germans. The city’s welcoming atmosphere and rich cultural diversity make it a must-visit destination for football fans.
