All over France, bar managers are trying to organize themselves to best accommodate the supporters who will come to watch the Euro matches in their establishment until July 11.

Without a national directive, this preparation is done a little "à la carte", depending on the city in particular.

Until July 11, football fans will be in turmoil as the best European players compete in Euro 2020, a competition that has been postponed because of the Covid-19.

Because of this disease, it is not certain that the sidewalks will be overflowing with supporters as the French experienced during the 2018 World Cup. And on the side of the bars too, we navigate a little on sight.

Professionals are trying to organize themselves while the health protocol reduces the usual capacity inside establishments by 50%.

No national guidelines for the moment

The least we can say is that it will be a bit a la carte depending on the bars and restaurants.

And for good reason: for the moment, no national directive has been issued on the subject.

Of course, barrier gestures will obviously have to be respected in front of the screens and customers will have to leave before the curfew at 11 p.m.

But everyone is preparing as he can, like Marc, manager of a bar in Paris which is already almost full.

"We made sure that people did not need to stand up and that they remained seated at their table," he explains at the microphone of Europe 1.

So that his customers can see the matches well, Marc and his team have "arranged the chairs and tables in front of the screens".

"At half-time, we will remind people that we will have to settle well at the end of the match, because we will have to leave immediately after," he said.

"There is a curfew so we all have to respect it."

"The game will be broadcast ... but inside"

In Rennes, things seem a little more complicated for bar managers.

The City has chosen not to issue a specific authorization to bars and restaurants for the broadcasting of matches on the terrace in order to avoid any overflow.

Chef in a bar in the city center, Nicolas however decided to adapt.

"The curtains will be closed and the game will be broadcast on the multiple screens we have, but inside our establishment," he said.

"The party will be the same, with a little less people and maybe a little less atmosphere. But already we can already broadcast the match, enjoy, eat, have a drink, be together, and that's it. already good. The party will be inside. "
