Vodafone 5G roaming launches in 55 European cities in time for summer holidays

Vodafone has announced that 5G roaming is now live in 55 towns and cities across Europe, just in time for the summer getaway.

This means that Vodafone customers with 5G-ready phones will be able to stream music from their sunbeds, download podcasts by the pool, watch live TV and sport at the airport, or play games on the go at speeds of up to ten times faster than 4G.

Vodafone's 5G network is available in Madrid, Munich, Rome and London, as well as over 50 other cities and towns in Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK.

Unlike with EE, customers won't have to pay extra to use 5G with Vodafone's pay monthly plans. However, depending on what plan you go for, your speeds may be limited.

"We have accelerated the availability of 5G roaming just as schools break up for the summer holiday," said Vodafone UK Chief Executive Officer Nick Jeffery.

"With 5G in more places than with any other network, our customers can keep in touch with loved ones at home, colleagues in the office or with their business customers while they’re travelling abroad."

Vodafone claims that its 5G network offers WiFi-like speeds, meaning customers won't have to rely on hotel connections or public WiFi to keep in touch with the office.
