Experience the World Cup at PortAventura World: Where to Watch the Matches

On 11 June, the most anticipated sporting event on the planet kicks off: the FIFA World Cup! A whole month filled with passion, goals, excitement and nail-biting moments. If your holiday happens to coincide with the tournament, there’s no need to worry. You won’t have to choose between riding your favourite roller coasters and supporting your national team.

At PortAventura World, we’ve prepared everything so you won’t miss a single minute of the action. We have set up official broadcast areas throughout the resort so you can enjoy the best football atmosphere surrounded by magic and adrenaline.

Official World Cup Viewing Areas

Whether you’re inside the park enjoying your day or relaxing at accommodation within or outside the resort, there will always be a screen nearby where you can cheer every goal. Take note of the exact locations:

In PortAventura Park: Football and Great Food at Vinosfera

If kick-off catches you in the middle of a fun-filled day at PortAventura Park, head to the Mediterrània area. Vinosfera Restaurant will become the official viewing point inside the park from the Round of 16 onwards. You’ll be able to watch the matches live (this venue will operate as a bar only, although you may bring food purchased elsewhere in the park) in an unbeatable atmosphere. It’s the perfect plan for a tactical break before heading back to conquer more attractions. In addition, during the semi-finals, there will be a special Coca-Cola activation.

In PortAventura World Hotels: World Cup Passion at Hotel El Paso

For those looking to experience the matches with maximum excitement and alongside fellow fans, Hotel El Paso (at Bar Laberinto) will be the World Cup’s main hub. Screens will also be available at Café Saula in Hotel PortAventura and at the Lobby Bar in Hotel Gold River. Their large screens and festive atmosphere make them the ideal places to discuss the day’s key moments after an action-packed day at the resort.

At Ponient Hotels: Entertainment in the Main Bars

If you’re staying at one of our urban and family-friendly hotels, the World Cup is guaranteed there too. The main bars at Ponient Pirámide Salou, Ponient Dorada Palace and Ponient Marinada will show the matches on indoor screens. It’s the perfect option for enjoying a refreshing drink and relaxing with your family while watching the action unfold. On match days, the regular entertainment programme will be replaced with special football-themed activities, including face painting for younger guests.

The Perfect Destination for Football Fans

Combining the excitement of theme parks with the epic atmosphere of the World Cup creates a truly unique experience. At PortAventura World, we are experts at bringing together people from different cultures and interests with one common goal: having an amazing time. During this month, the resort will transform into a genuine international festival where fans from around the world will share viewing areas, terraces and, of course, attraction queues. Experiencing the thrill of a decisive match just after reaching speeds of over 100 kilometres per hour on a roller coaster is something you can only do here.

Practical Tips for Enjoying the World Cup at the Resort

To make sure your experience is complete and you don’t miss kick-off for the most important matches, we recommend following these simple tips:

• Plan your schedule: Check the match calendar before entering the park so you can organise your rides on the major attractions and know when to head to the viewing areas.
• Arrive early at Vinosfera: Arrive a little earlier to secure your table.
• Enjoy the experience together: Football brings people together. Take advantage of the screenings in the hotel bars to meet fans from other countries and enjoy a unique multicultural experience.
