  "long_title": "This Order amends the Licensing Act 2003 (FIFA World Cup Licensing Hours) Order 2026 (“the 2026 Order”) to make further provision in connection with the 2026 FIFA World Cup. It extends licensing hours for licensed premises and qualifying clubs for a period of seven hours beginning at 10 p.m. on 5th July 2026, for the round of 16 match scheduled to take place at 1 a.m. on 6th July 2026. The Order also changes the specified time applicable to the final match of the tournament scheduled to take place at 8 p.m. on 19th July 2026 should England be involved in that match, so that the licensing hours extension begins at 10 p.m. rather than 11 p.m. The remainder of the 2026 Order is unchanged.",
