Worcester venues see sales boost during World Cup matches

Worcester venues that typically do not broadcast football have reported increased takings during the ongoing World Cup. Establishments like Tonic, Weavers Of Worcester, and Copper Beech Brew Co have embraced the tournament spirit, attracting crowds for matches such as England's game against Croatia. Barmaids and business owners noted a strong sense of community and collaboration among local independent businesses, contributing to their success. The venues have seen a mixture of pre-booked and walk-in customers on match nights, with many usually closed during the week opting to extend their hours for the events.
