Where To Watch The FIFA 2018 World Cup In London

7 – The Magic Roundabout, Old Street

Why not launch you 2018 FIFA World Cup experience with a launch party at this fascinating place located right in the middle of the Old Street Roundabout? With artisanal coffees, DJ’s from some of London’s popular clubs, cocktails and craft beers and many other things. The East is changing and the Old Street area is one of the hubs of this change. Whether you are for or against gentrification (Cereal Killer Cafe, WTF), it is a part of our history that has to be seen to be believed this promises to be a world cup experience like no other. All of England’s games will be shown with surround sound, however while all other games will be shown they will be muted as the event will be accompanied by a disco that will be running daily from 4pm. Music will include Soul, Reggae, Funk and Disco among many others as they rotate DJ’s. They will also be offering great deals on drinks and burgers so keep an open eye!

4 – Boxpark, Croydon and Shoreditch

Boxpark is an interesting project involving the world’s first pop up mall which combines the idea of the modern street food market with local and international brands next to each other. It is a unique experience and quite often they have several musical performances a week. Located in Shoreditch (the first branch) and Croydon the Boxpark offers great food at reasonable prices. The entire outlet is made up of recycled shipping containers making it a somewhat sustainable way to operate business. For the World cup they will be having special ticketed screenings for some of the bigger games at both the Shoreditch and Croydon venues and the atmosphere they provide is one that will fit in with football and food fans alike.
