Mikhail Hotel And Leisure Group Cluster Manager James Bretnall-Bennett said:
“If you’re planning on joining us at The Grand, the Lord Street Hotel and Punch Tarmey’s, don’t leave it until the last minute.
“I’ve said all along I think England will win this World Cup! It’s been a thrilling tournament so far, and we’re excited to see these two World Cup Semi Finals.
“Our previous England games have been complete sell-outs, and we don’t want anyone to miss out on what promises to be another unforgettable night!

“The weather forecast in Southport is amazing this week too.
“It’s a brilliant week of live sport, with The 154th Open Golf Championship at Royal Birkdale in Southport on our big screens too.
“After the games, you’ll be able to continue your night out – hopefully celebrating another famous England win – inside the Lord Street Hotel, Punch Tarmey’s or Maverick’s, which will all be open until late!”
