The Euro 2024 final is today, can you believe it?
Here at Time Out, we’ve analysed every team and compiled a huge list of where to watch the Euros in Dubai but what about the places where you’ll get rewarded for backing your team?
There’s plenty of special offers in Dubai where you’ll get a free drink for wearing your team’s shirt or big prizes if your chosen nation wins.
So let’s kick off this round-up and get stuck in like a big, lumbering centre-back.
Euros in Dubai – how to be rewarded for supporting your team

For every five drinks, you’ll also get one free.
