Online event platform Fanzone has been chosen by UEFA as its official partner to provide all online transportation services and solutions for fans travelling to Euro 2016 in France this summer.
Fanzone enables fans to plan their journeys to Euro 2016 with collaborative door-to-door transport solutions, such as shared rides, shared taxis, public transportation, navigation to the Park & Ride service and more.
Fanzone allows fans to share a ride with fellow supporters and can also find which of their friends are attending the matches and where they coming from.
By using the calculator on the UEFA Euro 2016 app, fans can also estimate their eco-footprint and how much they are contributing in carbon emissions.
Guy-Lauren Epstein, director of marketing, UEFA, said: “We are very happy to have Fanzone as our online transport and traveling community solution, and I’m sure it will help the millions of traveling fans, to get around in an easier and friendly manner.”
Ori Shilo, CEO and co-founder, Fanzone, said: “We are excited and honored to partner with UEFA for the biggest Euro ever, and provide online transport solutions and a great journey experience to fans coming to France from all over the world.
“Our platform will make the traveling and moving around experience easier and more enjoyable.”
“This strategic partnership is part of our current expansion into international markets, providing our transportation platform and services in many sports and music events, making the life of attendees easier,” Shilo added.
Fanzone has recently opened an office in London, its first in the UK, and its chairman is Alex Horne, former chief executive and general secretary of the Football Association.
