As the UK gears up for the start of the Euros later this week, one Sheffield pub is drawing eyes from across the UK for truly getting into the spirit with its decoration.

The Big Tree in Woodseats is covered in European flags - more than 500 in total.

There's flag bunting hung everywhere - more than 2,000 feet of it and two ten foot tall inflatable England mascots too.

Our sister station in Sheffield Hallam FM went to have a look:

The pub's gone viral online as football fans get excited for Euro 2020 which starts today, after being delayed a year because of the pandemic

General Manager Adam Chamberlin says they wanted to lift people's spirits:

"Everyone's had such a bleak year, we thought if we're going to do it we may as well do it properly and put a smile on people's faces.

"Once we started we just thought, oh we'll put some more up, oh we'll put some more up, then we decided let's go for it and make it the best decorated pub in Sheffield. And now I think it's in contention for the best decorated pub in England!"

Adam says he never expected it to draw so much attention:

"It's surreal to be honest with you. Absolutely surreal. We never expected this sort of response to it - it's been immense the amount of people who are just pulling up and taking photos. We've had people come as far as Leeds just to have a pint here and take a selfie. It's mental!"

England first play in Euro 2020 on Sunday afternoon.
