The world’s largest sporting event, the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Football (soccer for you Yanks), starts next week! It is being played in Russia and the first game will be on June 14th with the final match scheduled for July 15th. One whole month of amazing football. 32 nations from around the world have qualified, including Sweden, and football fans in Stockholm (both locals and visitors) always want to know where they can see the matches. To start off with, all matches will be shown live on Swedish TV (SVT1, SVT2, TV4) which you can see in your room at Hotel Rival. It is also being shown live on certain cable stations (CMore channels). But, it is always more fun to watch the matches with others! Just about every pub and sports bar in Stockholm will be showing the games, but below you will find a few more stand-out bars and restaurants that will be showing live matches to their patrons. Expect large crowds when Sweden is playing!
