Pubs in Örebro can open outside regular hours during the football World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the USA. Matches will air late in Swedish time. Sweden's participation in the men's tournament was confirmed on Tuesday.
The men's football World Cup will take place in Canada, Mexico and the USA, meaning matches will be broadcast late in Swedish evening time. John Johansson (S) proposes that pubs in Örebro be allowed to stay open outside regular hours to show the games.
The announcement follows confirmation on Tuesday that Sweden will participate in the tournament. Johansson highlights the importance of enabling Örebro residents to watch Sweden's national team matches together.
This decision allows pubs to adapt to the World Cup schedule and attract patrons during late hours.
