England's Euro knockout matches will not be shown at Glastonbury if they advance

GLASTONBURY Festival will not screen England or Scotland's Euro 2024 last 16 fixtures if they qualify.

The decision was made in anticipation of the matches potentially clashing with headline sets at the event.

In the past, there have been attempts to show vital matches on big screens, particularly on days before the main stages open.

However, in line with previous decisions in 2014 and 2016, this year's last 16 matches, should they involve England or Scotland, will not be screened at Worthy Farm,

A Glastonbury Festival spokesperson said: "It won’t be known until the week of the festival whether or not England or Scotland will actually play a match during the festival.

"But, as we have already been asked about our plans, we wanted to let everyone know well in advance that the decision has been made not to screen the potential matches.

"We would like to wish both Gareth Southgate and Steve Clarke’s sides all the best in Germany.

"And we hope we’ll all be able to watch them play quarter final matches in the days after this year’s Festival".

Glastonbury Festival had screened the Women's World Cup quarter-final between England and Norway in 2019.

This screening was organised at the request of England's Georgia Stanway, who asked the festival to show the match as her brother was attending the event.
