What's On in Leicester
Tuesday 23 June 2026
Leicester may be quietly going about its Tuesday, but down at Athena tonight the city is anything but subdued. With England stepping onto the World Cup stage against Ghana, there is electric anticipation in the air and one very big, very loud place to feel it together.
Highlights

Leicester's Biggest World Cup Fanzone: England Vs Ghana — Athena — one of Leicester's most spectacular venues, with its soaring ceilings and room for a serious crowd — transforms into the city's ultimate World Cup gathering point tonight as England take on Ghana. From 6:00pm, expect big screens, a roaring atmosphere, and that particular kind of collective joy (and nervous tension) that only live sport in a packed room can deliver. At £10, it is a brilliant way to be part of a moment the whole country will be talking about — and far more fun than watching it alone on your sofa.
