Colchester fans can roar on England together under the lights when the JobServe Community Stadium opens its doors for a free World Cup quarter‑final screening this Saturday. Colchester United announced that the fanzone will start welcoming supporters from 8pm, two hours before the 10pm kick‑off against Norway in Miami.
Entry is free, and food and drink will be available before and during the match. The game will be shown on the outdoor big screen as well as inside the Legends Lounge, where over 100 seats are provided. Supporters can also bring their own camping chairs, though under‑18s must come with an adult.
England stormed into the last eight with a 3‑2 win over co‑hosts Mexico at the Estadio Azteca on Monday, Jude Bellingham scoring twice and Harry Kane converting a penalty. Manager Thomas Tuchel now faces a Norway side led by Erling Haaland, with a semi‑final against Argentina or Switzerland in Atlanta on 15 July the prize for victory.
The JobServe Community Stadium has been Colchester United’s home since opening in August 2008 and regularly stages community events alongside matchdays. Saturday’s fanzone builds on that tradition, giving the town a focal point for the biggest England knockout tie of the summer.
