Shortly before the final - EM-Boost with concerts and esports

Despite the last EM game in Dortmund taking place during the semifinals, the program in NRW venues continues until the final on Sunday. At Westfalenpark in Dortmund, two concert days take place during the last EM weekend.

On Friday, approximately Michael Schulte and Clueso perform for free outdoors. On Saturday, Alice Merton and Die Fantastischen 4 perform in Westfalenpark. Since the number of visitors is limited to 18,000, tickets must be purchased in advance, according to the organizer. This costs 5 Euros for service fees. The ticket includes free public transportation on the respective day.

E-Sport Program in Dortmund

Fans in Dortmund can then watch the final on Sunday in the Fanzone Friedensplatz. A LED cube built around the Peace Monument with four screens will broadcast the game in four directions. In addition, there is still an extensive E-Sports program in the Fanzone until Sunday. This includes tournament and quiz formats, as well as meetings with professional E-Footballers, according to the organizer.

In Gelsenkirchen, the time before the final is partly dedicated to E-Sports. On Saturday and Sunday, E-Sports tournaments take place in Nordsternpark. Additionally, on Friday, rapper Eko Fresh performs in the Fanzone. On Saturday, there is also a penalty shootout championship and performances by local bands. The final is then shown in the Fanzone on the public viewing screen.

Musically, it will be an eventful last EM weekend in Düsseldorf. On the day before the final, DJs David Puentez and Topic perform in the Fanzone on Burgplatz on Saturday. On Sunday, the final is shown at Burgplatz and at the Schauspielhaus. Whether the public viewing area on the Rhine embankment is used depends on the spectator flow, according to a spokesperson for the city. Visitors to the Rheinkirmes starting on Friday can watch the final. The final is shown in the Festzelt of the Shooters near the Rhine quay bridge.
