Boxing Day football is almost as festive as Santa Claus himself, so for those of us who can’t get to the games The Underground Pub at Habtoor Grand Beach Resort & Spa, are hosting a special day of action.

With every Premier League game being shown around the many screens, each team will be honoured with flags and crests while waiters will wear club shirts.

Festivities kick off from 12pm on December 26, when guests will enjoy food and drink deals as well as some classic British pub grub, including BBQ chicken wings, fish and chips, steak and kidney pie, and hearty burgers. Additionally, Happy Hour will run 4-8pm.

After the football, male duo Jet Lag will be performing live.
