Overview

**Book this package by midnight on Thursday 24th May and be entered in to a prize draw to get it paid for. T&Cs apply**

England start UEFA EURO 2012™ against a strengthening French side. The England team will be pretty confident after beating Spain in 2011 and uncovering a new generation of exciting English talent. This is what it's all about!

This trip includes a face-value Category 2 match ticket (secured directly from UEFA), as well as flights, transfers and the services of a Thomson Sport host with a local representative for the duration of your trip. There will also be little matchday extras to make the day even more memorable.


Official tickets through UEFA

As England’s only licensed tour operator, we’re in a unique position to guarantee you get a match ticket. This package includes the cost of a face-value Category 2 match ticket, secured directly from UEFA, which will be sent direct to your home address by Thomson Sport prior to departure. As we have been allocated additional tickets for this match by UEFA, there is unfortunately no option to upgrade or downgrade your category of ticket.

Flights and transfers

On the morning of the game you (and a planefull of other England fans) will fly direct to Donetsk from London Gatwick. As soon as you land you’ll be whisked across town to the city centre, where you'll have the opportunity to sample the local delicacies and beer, before being transported to the stadium in time for kick off. And when the final whistle blows, there will be plenty of time to celebrate another England victory on the coach transfer to the airport! 

Official extras for England supporters

Because we’re England’s licensed tour operator for UEFA EURO 2012™, we’re hoping to arrange some nice matchday extras for England supporters that travel with us. We’ll let you know more when all the details are finalised

Also included

• Escorted by a Thomson Sport host throughout
