If you’re not one of the lucky few heading to Rio ahead of the Olympics next month, there’s only one place to don all things yellow, green and blue and head to for a fiesta – your nearest Yates! Whether you prefer tennis, taekwondo or the triathlon, Yates knows exactly how to get you in the mood for the biggest sporting event of the year.

Sprint into summer with one of Yates’ delicious party bowls – ‘Copacabana,’ which combines vodka with the best of the tropical flavours, or ‘Mmmm Bongo,’ which mixes Havana and Malibu with pineapple, passion fruit and grenadine to create a blend that will leave you wanting more. Or, if you’d prefer to get your pulse racing, why not try one the four hand-crafted vodka shots available at the bar: Passion Fruit Pole Vault, Marzipan Marathon, Bubblegum Backstroke or Skittles Shot Put, all certain to get you into the party spirit.

What’s more, Yates will be hosting an exciting Rio Carnival Weekender between Friday 29th – Sunday 31st July to make sure that everyone is ready for the home stretch before the opening ceremony the following weekend. Complete with giveaways, Yates is the place to be and will be paying homage to the famous Brazillian festival with a party of its own.
