FourFourTwo looks at where to watch Euro 2024 in Leeds, with the best pubs, bars and venues to take in this summer's action
England fans will have plenty of places to watch the action in Leeds
Looking for where to watch Euro 2024 in Leeds? Watching England in their attempts to end what is now 58 years of hurt with hundreds, or even thousands, of fellow fans in a packed out pub or fanzone is a summer ritual for many.
As ever, we're all full of hope that this time will be different and Gareth Southgate's men will finally get their hands on a trophy at Euro 2024.
There's good reason for the confidence, as the bookies have the Three Lions as one of the favourites, with Harry Kane coming off the best goalscoring season of his career, Phil Foden bossing the Premier League and Jude Bellingham laughing in the face of anyone who thought a 20-year-old from Stourbridge couldn't be the best player in La Liga.
Football fans in Leeds are among the most passionate of the lot, so where are the best places in the city to watch the action?
Whether it's in a trendy bar or a fan-packed outdoor gathering, read on and get your plans for the next month sorted.

One of Leeds’ best rooftop bars, this Headrow House will be one of the best places to watch the action this summer if the sun decides to show its face in the coming weeks. But with four floors below the terrace, there’s a solid back-up plan if the weather gods don’t play ball.

After opening 12 months ago, Project House on Armley Road is getting set to show their first football tournament and will do so in their own style. A giant outdoor screen will show all England games, with food options from local indies available. Chuck in a DJ for post-match tunes and this contemporary venue is the place to go to make a night of it.

England’s summer tournament exploits usually have more drama than a Hollywood blockbuster, so where better to watch the action than an actual cinema? The Three Lions are heading to the multiplex, where you can enjoy Everyman’s comfy sofas, popcorn, pints and burgers at the Trinity Leeds city centre location.
