The Women’s EURO 2025 is coming to Switzerland this summer, and if you’re in Brighton, you’re in one of the best cities in the UK to catch all the action. Whether you’re cheering on England, Wales, or just in it for the footy vibes, here’s a list of the top pubs and bars in Brighton & Hove showing every game live — with big screens, beer gardens, great food, and proper football atmosphere.
