Edinburgh venues which still have space for Scotland vs Haiti World Cup match this weekend

World Cup fever is taking over the Capital and thousands of Scotland fans are looking forward to the team’s first World Cup match in 28 years.

Returning to the competition for the first time since 1998, the excitement is high amongst the Tartan Army as Steve Clark’s men prepare to take on Haiti in their opening match of the tournament on Sunday morning (June 14).

Plans are being made across the city to watch the match, which is due to kick-off at the eye-watering time of 2.00am.

While many will be holled up at home to watch the match, there will be plenty of fans looking to head out to soak up some atmosphere with fellow supporters.

Some Edinburgh venues are offering ticketed events and first-come-first-served space - here are the places you can still pick up a ticket to watch the match.

Liquid Rooms

Liquid Rooms on Victoria Street

The final release of tickets to watch on the big screen at Liquid Rooms on Victoria Street are available on Skiddle.

The event begins at 10pm on Saturday night and will continue into the early hours when Scotland take to the pitch in Boston.

Tickets to this over 18s event cost £22.25 each and include giant screens to watch the action, DJs, bands, special guests and even cheerleaders to get you in the American spirit.

Brewhemia, located on Market Street behind Edinburgh Waverley, is also hosting screenings for Scotland’s matches.

There are still bookings available, depending on party size and time, for the Haiti match on Sunday morning at a deposit of £5 per person.

Brewhemia has said that all bookings for the match will have a view of screens throughout the venue but “due to pillars and chandelier lighting some views may be slightly compromised”. There will also be live music before the match.

Union Social

Teviot Row House in Edinburgh

A hotspot for students, Union Social is getting into the World Cup spirit shortly after its grand re-opening earlier this year.

The bar venue, located inside the newly-refurbished Teviot House, is showing the Scotland vs Haiti match for not only students but members of the public as well. The student union is also offering up free halftime pies during every Scotland game to keep fans fueled throughout the night.

Space inside Union Social is on a first-come-first-served basis, so be sure to head down early for a spot.
