Budapest Soccer Screenings, Szabadság Tér, 8 June - 1 July
With the UEFA Euro 2012 approaching, more and more alternative locations pop up for watching the matches. The pubs and venues in town are striving to attract soccer fans with extreme screen sizes and tempting drink specials. One may choose to go with friends, the whole family, to rainproof places or to ones with huge displays, and it may also matter how many beers your money is worth.

Solitary cheering in front of the TV in the comfort of the home seems to be an outmoded activity nowadays, partly because rooting together in the company of others to our favourite teams (and not making a fool of ourselves by screaming GOAL hundreds of ways in the family home) is somehow much closer to the atmosphere of the stadium radiating through the screens, only recreated in a totally different location.

Who could dream of a more beautiful environment for communal cheering than Szabadság tér, the exact opposite of the often oppressive feel of the overcrowded uniform stadia?

Root for the best European teams on the most amazing square in Budapest, in the fresh air, at Downtown Soccer Screenings. The matches are screened on gigantic, 28m2 LED walls, while the atmosphere, the excitement, the variety of food and drinks are guaranteed.

The audio-visual menu is composed of the matches of the UEFA Euro 2012, from the group matches to the finals, and to keep the ball rolling on the rest-days too, the place will transform itself into an outdoor cinema featuring thematically relevant movies on the days with no matches.

Prize winning competitions, drink specials, bouncing balls and cheering audience every day - with friends, family, your girlfriend, or by yourself, since everyone else will be here anyway.
