Where to Watch The World Cup in London
From lively sports bars to spacious pub gardens and colossal drinking halls, London has plenty of great places to watch the World Cup. These are our favourites...
The World Cup is back for 2026 and everyone is on the hunt for the best place to catch all the action. This year, 16 stadiums across Canada, Mexico and the United States will host this epic tournament, which plays out from Thursday June 11 - Sunday July 19. And of course, England fans will be glued to the screen, praying that this will be the year it finally comes home.
You could of course just watch the action at home, but if you’re looking for the atmosphere of a city-centre fan zone where pints are launched into the sky, or a packed-out pub where the singing doesn’t stop for the whole ninety minutes, then why not head to one of the many sports pubs, bars, beer halls and social clubs that we have rounded up as our favourite places to watch it across the capital.
