The gigantic event continues: Hamburg rings in the second match day of UEFA EURO 2024 with another container installation
The European Football Championship got off to a brilliant start in Hamburg last weekend: an orange fan walk with 40,000 Dutch fans, a packed Volkspark stadium and a very well-attended fan zone on Heiligengeistfeld whetted the appetite for soccer. The gigantic container installation in the Port of Hamburg was also converted accordingly for the second match day of the tournament, which starts today: the 25 containers will now visualize the pairings for the second match day of UEFA EURO 2024 until 21 June. A full house is expected in the fan zone with public viewing for both the Croatia v Albania match in the Volksparkstadion and the second group match of the German national team in the evening.
The container installation for the first match day of the EURO already aroused anticipation for the tournament among the people of Hamburg and their guests. Now the installation has been rebuilt in time for the second match day: Once again, a container with the official UEFA EURO 2024 logo and 24 containers with the national flags of the participating nations have been stacked in six towers, symbolizing the twelve international matches of the second match day. In total, the installation is around 36 meters wide and 10 meters high. The O'Swaldkai opposite HafenCity Hamburg once again provides the perfect stage. Until June 21, the installation can best be seen from the Strandkai in HafenCity Hamburg, from the plaza of the Elbphilharmonie and, of course, from a boat on a harbor tour. The "Spectacular of the Host City Hamburg" will then become even more spectacular for the round of 16 and the start of the final round of EURO 2024.
