Where to Watch World Cup 2026 in London

7 May 20263m read

With the World Cup fast approaching, the excitement is building—and there’s no better way to experience the action than surrounded by a buzzing crowd in a great venue.

We’ve rounded up Five great venues to catch every match, whether you’re entertaining clients, organising team social events, or simply looking to soak up the atmosphere.

Market Halls, Oxford Street

Situated in the former BHS building , Market Halls Oxford Street is one of London’s largest and livliest food halls making it a brilliant option for World Cup 2026 if you’re looking for scale, atmosphere and variety.  There’ll be bookable fan zones, huge HD screens and beer kegs on every table at Market Halls, guaranteeing you only top vibes if you decide to watch the footy at the Oxford Street, Canary Wharf, Victoria or Paddington venues. But that’s not the best bit, if England win, you’ll be able to cop 100 pints for £1, and DJs will carry on the party late into the night. How to book: Minimum six guests from £8 per person. Packages available for groups of 16 or more people.

Big Penny Social

This cavernous beer hall, formerly known as Truman’s Social Club, was billed as ‘the UK’s biggest’ when it opened in 2020, so it should be spacious enough to pack in plenty of screaming football fans. The east London hangout will be showing all of England’s matches on its ‘big screen’ with live entertainment bringing the energy for pre-match build-up and post-match celebrations.

How to book: Group stage matches cost £12, knockout matches cost £15 per person and the final will cost £20 per person. Last entry for tickets one hour before kick-off.

Bat And Ball

Head to Westfield Stratford City for a humongous choice of places to watch the big game: there are a whopping 23 screens to choose from. Plus, if you’re inspired to get active after all that footie watching, there’s ample opportunity to have some ball-based fun at the venue’s five ping-pong tables. Showing every single game with £10 deposit per Food and drink packages are available for groups.

Flat Iron Square

For big group get togethers after work. Expect huge game energy  and seriously good food & drinks. Flame grilled Souvlaki, crispy buttermilk fried chicken and proper Neapolitan pizzas plus sharing plates made for the table.

There are 16 beers on tap, wine & cocktails including the usual classics.

Rae’s, right next to Flat Iron Square and formerly legendary nightclub O’Meara, will transform this summer to offer guests an intimate, elevated match-day and late-night viewing experience with eight large screens and an all-weather roof terrace. Fans can enjoy every England fixture at Rae’s Summer Sports Lounge with a club-level sound system, DJs and live entertainment before and after key matches. Giant screens inside & out, table service, music and serious after-hours energy.

Box Park

Wherever you are in London, chances are you’ll have a Box Park within easy enough reach. Pick from Camden, Croydon, Wembley or Shoreditch to watch every goal, whistle blow and penalty at this year’s World Cup. Every venue promises a rowdy atmosphere along with plenty of street food to keep you fuelled and ‘a special surprise or two’.
