From 1 April until 9 June, the UEFA EURO 2016 Trophy Tour train will take young and old on a unique adventure – an occasion to "take all French people to the heart of the event," said Jacques Lambert, EURO 2016 SAS president.
The train will spend three days in each of the UEFA EURO 2016 host cities, as well as two days at all other stops. The train will be officially inaugurated on day one in the presence of local personalities, UEFA representatives and regional sporting ambassadors. The trophy will then travel round the city to meet the public before being installed in the heart of the train. It will remain within the station for a couple of days, with visitors able to check it out from 09.00CET to 18.00CET.
The train is made up of four carriages. The first one offers visitors the chance to have their photo taken with the trophy, while the second contains a EURO museum comprising of photos, videos, shirts and more. The third carriage will be the 'David Guetta recording studio', where fans can play their part in recording the official tournament song. In the last carriage, there will be an exhibition of all previous EURO mascots and some secrets will be revealed about this year's, Super Victor.
More information is available in the dedicated Trophy Tour section.
