Temperatures are set to reach 38°C in Liverpool as Foo Fighters arrive in the city for their first Anfield gig. An amber weather warning is in place for Liverpool from midnight on Wednesday, June 24 until 11.59pm on Thursday, June 25. According to the Met Office, people should expect "hot and humid weather," with "exceptionally warm temperatures" in the day and night.
American band Foo Fighters will perform the first of two shows at Anfield Stadium on Thursday, June 25. Their second show will follow two days later on Saturday, June 27.
Ahead of the show, the ECHO asked Liverpool FC how Foo Fighters fans should prepare for the show. Free tap water will be available throughout the stadium to ensure people remain hydrated.
Fans are reminded that they are able to bring in a sealed 500ml bottle of water into the stadium. Free water will be available at the bars and kiosks inside Anfield.
Refreshments will also be available to purchase inside and outside of the stadium.
Fans should apply sunscreen before heading into Anfield. Although fans can not bring it into the stadium, sunscreen will be provided at stations inside Anfield.
Fans are also advised not to arrive before the doors are due to open as there is limited shade available in the immediate vicinity of the stadium.
It is also recommended that people follow NHS England's gudie on how to stay comfortable in hot weather conditions. It states:
Keep out of the heat if you can. If you have to go outside, stay in the shade especially between 11am and 3pm, wear sunscreen, a hat and light clothes, and avoid exercise or activity that makes you hotter.
Check the temperature of rooms, especially where people at higher risk live and sleep, and make sure to check on anyone who is at higher risk from the heat.
You can also get help from the environmental health office at your local council, if you think a hot house is affecting your health or someone else's. They can inspect a rented home for hazards to health, including excess heat.
Keep your living space cool. Close windows, curtains and blinds during the day and open them at night when the temperature outside has gone down. Electric fans can help if the temperature is below 35 degrees.
Cool yourself down. Have cold food and regular cold drinks. Drink extra fluids but avoid alcohol, caffeine and hot drinks, and have a cool shower or put cool water on your skin or clothes.
