We want you to feel safe during Women's EURO so you can enjoy your tournament experience to the max even when high temperatures hit!
☀️ Weather forecast
Keep checking the MeteoSwiss website for the forecast of your matchday and for potential heat warnings:
Here's our guide with the most important tips to help you stay refreshed at the stadiums, the Fan Zones and all across Switzerland.
⚽ At the tournament
When you're out and about in the Host City, the Fan Zones or watching a match at the stadium, try to:
🕶️ Stay out of the sun and seek shade - all Fan Zones will provide plenty of shaded areas.
👒 Wear a hat and sunscreen - you can bring sunscreen in soft plastic travel-size bottles (50ml maximum) into the stadium. Please note that sun umbrellas may not be used in the stands.
🫗 Drink plenty of water - see our tips below!
🆘 If you feel unwell - speak to a steward or one of our volunteers for help.
💧 Tap water
Staying hydrated is one of the most important things to do during periods of hot weather. Luckily in Switzerland access to fresh water is easy:
🚰 Tap water in Switzerland is safe to drink.
⛲ Many Swiss localities have public water fountains with water that is safe to drink (unless stated otherwise, "kein Trinkwasser" / "eau non-potable").
🏟️ At the stadiums, simply refill your cups anytime with fresh drinking water from the stadium bathrooms (it's safe to drink!).
💡 Further recommendations
Hot weather can impact your health, especially for older and (chronically) ill people, pregnant women, small children and babies. The Swiss Federal Office of Public Health has issued guidance on the "three golden rules for hot days":
1️⃣ Avoid physical exertion
2️⃣ Keep the heat away and cool your body
3️⃣ Drink plenty, eat light
