IT may still be six weeks away but already the excitement and anticipation is building of the England football team winning the European Championships in Portugal in June.

And you too can taste a piece of the action courtesy of Destiny & Elite nightclub which is giving customers the chance to win a VIP trip to see England take on Croatia on Monday, June 21.

The prize includes return flights for two people, accommodation and seats in the Lisbon stadium.

The club has confirmed it will be opening its doors to the public for every England game during the championships - starting on Sunday, June 13, against France.

The club will be decked with England flags and banners for a truly patriotic atmosphere.

There will also be numerous prizes and giveaways with pre and half time match analysis from special guests and Radio City's Sean Tilley.

All customers have to do to have a chance of winning the VIP trip is turn up and enter their details which will then be put into a grand prize draw.

Immediately after each game, the club will quickly transform itself into a dance and music haven to keep the party alive and kicking - whatever the result.

Nigel Gowland, Destiny's general manager, said: 'There is just one focus on everyone's mind this summer - the European Championships.

'Four years ago we didn't even make it to the quarters, but this could be our year. We will be opening our doors early so customers can come in.

'And girls, we want you here too, sit and watch the game on the giant screens and then stay for a night out to party - we hope.

'There will be loads of prizes and free giveaways. We reckon this is the next best thing to being in Portugal.'
