Aldi opening UK stores early every Sunday during Euro 2020

Aldi stores in England and Wales will be opening half an hour early to mark the occasion.

The early Sunday opening time will continue throughout the summer to also give shoppers across the UK chance to visit their local store at a quieter time.

Richard Thornton, communications director at Aldi UK, said: “We can’t wait for the football to kick off this weekend and want to help our customers enjoy the tournament as much as possible.

Aldi announced the move on social media earlier today.
