Lost Minds, a major festival in Newcastle, has confirmed it will screen England's World Cup quarter final against Norway on Saturday, with organisers announcing slight set time changes to accommodate the match.
England's World Cup Journey Continues
England secured their place in the last eight after a thrilling victory over Mexico in the early hours of Monday, battling with 10 men for much of the second half to win at the Azteca stadium. Now, Thomas Tuchel's side faces Norway, who stunned Brazil 2-1 thanks to two goals from Manchester City striker Erling Haaland.
Lost Minds Screens the Match
Lost Minds, taking place at Exhibition Park in Newcastle, will show the 10pm kick-off on Saturday. Organisers announced on Facebook: "You asked, we’ve delivered. We’re now officially screening the England V Norway World Cup match from kick-off at Lost Minds!" The accompanying graphic confirmed a "slight change" in set times for the event, which features acts including Oliver Heldens, Holy Priest, Darren Styles, and Billy Gillies. The revised schedule will be announced soon.
Lost Minds is the third event in this year's In The Park festival series, which began with Lewis Capaldi's gig on Wednesday night. That show saw Capaldi stop twice and leave the stage due to "situations" in the crowd.
Pubs, bars, and fan zones across Newcastle are expected to be packed for the match, with Lost Minds adding to the options for fans.
