The European Championship football party can begin – even outdoors. The Federal Council has now given the green light for public viewing in marketplaces and parks.

The The Federal Council has cleared the way for public viewing events at the upcoming men’s European Football Championship even after 10 p.m. In Berlin, the state chamber approved a federal government regulation regulating noise protection issues. Municipalities can therefore approve public viewing events outdoors even if they go into the night.

This affects the 26 of the 51 games in which kick-off does not take place until 9 p.m. This already applies to the opening game between Germany and Scotland on June 14th in Munich. The rules for public broadcasts are based on those of previous European and World Championships. It is important that exceptions to the noise regulations are only permitted for live broadcasts of games.
