Your guide to watching live sport this festive season
This December, our Sky Sports and TNT Sports screens will be showing as much festive live sport as possible, from the iconic World Darts Championship at Ally Pally to Boxing Day football matches. And, we’ve put together a handy guide full of everything you’ll need to know to enjoy it all in a Hungry Horse sports pub.
What live sport is on this December?
Where do we start? With the end of the F1 season at the start of the month, football all month long, cricket and darts, we’re in for a festive season full of live sport, action and entertainment. Here are some of the events we’re most excited for this Christmas:Boxing Day football
It’s not Christmas without a spot of live football! While the Premier League matches might not be on this year, we’ll still be showing EFL clashes all day long. From Birmingham City v Derby County to Leicester City v Watford, there are so many exciting matches to keep the festive celebrations going!
Plus, throughout the month, there’s still plenty of Premier League and EFL action, with an Old Firm derby on the 3rd of January! Keep your eyes glued to the telly for a month stacked with exciting matchups.
Festive F1
It’s the last F1 race of the season on the 7th of December, and we’ll be tuning in to watch every lap, live and direct on our Sky Sports screens. While the Constructors Championship might’ve been set in stone since Europe, there’s still plenty left to play for in the midfield. It’s lights out, and away we go!
Twixmas darts
As Luke ‘The Nuke’ Littler steps up to the oche to reclaim his title, we’ll be watching every set, leg and match in our Hungry Horse sports pubs. Watch along as the World Darts Championship unfolds from the 11th of December all the way through to the 3rd of January. It wouldn’t be Twixmas without the darts, after all!
Live sport in a sports pub
Watching sport at a Hungry Horse sports pub is probably the best way to watch live sport. From an atmosphere that’s perfect for friends and family to our amazing selection of festive food and drinks, you’ll be able to enjoy every event, match, race and more just how you like it.Whether you’re looking for a comfy seat and a hot drink or you prefer to live it large and get a round in with all your mates, at Hungry Horse, we’ve got space for everyone. So, kick back, relax and enjoy the festive vibes this December.
Festive food and live sport
To really make the most of watching live sport this Christmas, you’ll have to tuck into our delicious festive menu! Order a few starters for the table or grab a plate for yourself – our sports pubs don’t judge!
Try the Santa Stacker burger, with beef burnt ends, a gooey brie bite, a pig-in-blanket and a sprout or rock around the Christmas tree with our Rockin’ Chicken Strips, dipped in a Christmassy BBQ cranberry sauce. If you’re prepping for the big day, our Traditional Christmas Dinner has to be the winner (and we like it with extra pigs-in-blankets), with a cheeky Bailey’s ™ Profiteroles Sundae to finish it off.
