Haarlem bars to stay open longer during World Cup?

The VVD party in Haarlem has proposed extending pub opening hours during the upcoming FIFA World Cup to accommodate late-night match broadcasts. Councillor Alexander Bruch argues that the move would support the local hospitality industry and allow fans to watch games together despite the time difference with North America. The proposal will be discussed in the city council to address matches starting as late as 1:00 AM.
