You can already feel the World Cup atmosphere in Mexico City! If you’re looking for the perfect spot to get into the spirit of the opening match, the ideal option is the Fan Fest at the Anahuacalli Museum. Forget watching it alone at home; next Thursday, June 11, the museum will be decked out in green, white, and red to host an authentic soccer party with a live broadcast of the highly anticipated match between Mexico and South Africa.
The match kicks off at 1:00 p.m., but we recommend arriving early. The doors and entrances will open at 12:30 p.m. so you can get a good spot and start soaking up the energy of the event.
In addition to the giant screen, the venue will have hydration stations, a food court for snacks, and various activities for the whole family. To top it all off, you can complement the cultural experience with a photography exhibition dedicated to the historic pre-Hispanic ball game.
The event is at Museo 150, San Pablo Tepetlapa, Coyoacán. Remember that admission is free with prior registration through their official website or the links on their social media, but be warned—space is limited.
Get your favorite jersey and flag ready, and don’t miss out on this Fan Fest at the Anahuacalli Museum!
A place for true soccer fans!
In addition to Anahuacalli, Mexico City will host a host of events and experiences for soccer fans. One of them is Legends: The Ultimate Football Experience, a journey through the history of soccer from its origins.
One of the most interesting parts is the collection of jerseys, memorabilia, and other artifacts that have graced international soccer fields. Plus, there are immersive exhibits, screenings, and even a 3D theater that will make you feel close to legends like Messi or Pelé. It’s a must-see stop to soak up the World Cup spirit!
