England’s quarter-final clash with Norway will be shown on the Eden Sessions main stage this Saturday.

Moments after The Maccabees finish their headline set, the match - expected to draw thousands of viewers - will be broadcast on the huge 8m x 4.5m Session’s stage screen at 10pm.

It means festivalgoers won’t have to choose between live music and the football, with the screening rounding off a full day of performances at the Eden Project.
