- Boost in crowd numbers for Euro 2020 semi-finals and final
- Other moves to end social distancing pushed back until 19 July
The final weekend of Wimbledon will be played on Centre Court in front of a capacity crowd – the first at a sporting event since the UK went into lockdown as the Covid-19 pandemic took hold.
The tournament, which gets under way on 28 June, will begin with 50% ground capacity before the finals on 10 and 11 July are played out in front of a 15,000-capacity crowd. The government has confirmed plans for up to 20 pilot events across sport and entertainment, with Wimbledon and football’s Euro 2020 the big winners.
