Football in Fez


Fez might be awash with cultural activities right now, but what to do if you're a sports fan and really want to watch the match on Saturday?

The game on Saturday 30 May is the FA Cup Final to be played at Wembley between Everton and Chelsea. This is Everton's first appearance in the final for 14 years so it should be quite a spectacle.

To watch it in Fez, you can try cafes in the medina such as Cafe Firdaous in Batha. If you can't watch without a beer in hand, the Jnan Palace Hotel in the new city has a sports bar. Kick-off is at 16h00 local time.

We're Toffee supporters here, of course.

Can yoiu confirm some place that the match will definitely be showing, I know that English football is not really popular in Morocco.

As we said, Peschisolido, head for the Jnan Palace Hotel in the Ville Nouvelle.
