EURO 2020

UEFA EURO 2020

Newbies going tonight - Fully vaccinated word of warning about NHS app

I note the NHS app has changed and there is now a different screen image with the QR which says "Valid in England" and you no longer enter "Euros".

I strongly advise taking a screenshot of your NHS COVID Pass. If you approach from Wembley Park tube along Olympic Way then you'll need this on the first check, which is just after co-op and across the road before you go up the steps.

Against Germany an hour before kick-off many had problems accessing the NHS app and there was a big queue forming as people failed to access. 

The glance I have received so far for every game means a screenshot is fine for that first check. The second check is shortly afterwards and you must have your Euro2020 Tickets App open displaying your ticket and bluetooth ON. The steward will use a pen and the screen will go green if successful. Never had to show ID yet, but if you have ticket issues you might need ID. 

Entering the stadium is even easier after those two first checks. Ticket on phone into the gate slot and then the usual body checks. Wear a mask going through security. So far once on the concourse only a very few people wear a mask. 

Entry slots are advice only, though you are unlikely to be allowed into the stadium earlier than the time slot on your ticket.

Hope that helps someone!

Now let's do this tonight!

    The app changed sometime between the Croatia and Scotland game. The app update included the "Event Trials" and "Travel" QR code but I have not been asked for this. I scroll down to my Covid Records (all the tests and the record of vaccination) and show them that. I've never had a problem, but I do normally open the app before arriving at the first check, to avoid 4g not-spots.

    blogs: Tim Vickery: Gold-standard stadiums but the infrastructure looks green around the gills

    Some may say that Brazil’s new 2014 stadiums have turned out to be ‘anywhere arenas,’ robbed of their local identity. It is an understandable point of view. A year on from its re-inauguration, I still can’t make my mind up about...

    blogs: Graeme Le Saux: Shaw and Baines and the art of being comfortably No3

    I’m old enough to have experienced the first-team shirt numbers as 1-11, and No3 was always the left-back. To receive that shirt at World Cup 98 was very special. There have been some greats and you can’t dwell too much on the significance...

    blogs: Mark Wright: England at the World Cup is an amazing, powerful time

    I've got so many memories of watching England - I don't know where to start! But I can always remember when the World Cup was on in 1998 and Michael Owen first played. I had the videotape of the tournament back then and used to watch it religiously...

    blogs: Tim Vickery: The marvels and the madness of the Brazil I know

    Back in 1969, Charlie Croker and his team pulled off the Italian job, sneaking $4 million through a traffic jam. Forty five years later, well into their retirement, Charlie and the boys may well want to cross the Atlantic to follow England’s World...
