Edinburgh’s Liquid Rooms to host massive World Cup fanzone for the Tartan Army
Victoria Street venue among a growing number of World Cup fanzones being set up in the Capital
A Capital nightclub is gearing up to host a huge fanzone for supporters ahead of Scotland's 2026 World Cup campaign.
The Liquid Rooms, situated on Victoria Street, will host Tartan Army supporters during the national team's group stage matches this June.
The Edinburgh event is part of a nationwide rollout by Tartan Army Zone organisers, who are setting up similar events across the country, including Glasgow, Clydebank, and Falkirk.
Promotional material for the strictly over-18 events promises huge screens, an "incredible atmosphere," and an array of entertainment including live bands, singers, and house music DJs.
The events also plan to feature special guests, live pipers, cheerleaders, and hosts, culminating in massive afterparties.
The fanzone promises to be packed for the late-night fixtures, which are being played in Boston and Miami. The Liquid Room will host live screenings for the following matches:
- Scotland v Haiti: June 14, 2026 (2:00 AM)
- Scotland v Morocco: June 19, 2026 (11:00 PM)
- Scotland v Brazil: June 24, 2026 (11:00 PM)
Organisers are encouraging supporters to sign up online to secure their place among the Tartan Army ranks.
The city centre event joins a growing list of venues catering to supporters this summer. A massive 1,000-seater, purpose-built fanzone has already been announced for Edinburgh’s Gyle Shopping Centre, running between June 11 and July 19.
The Gyle site, which is expected to attract up to 20,000 visitors throughout its run, will offer licensed bars, food vendors, deck chair seating, and covered viewing areas. To accommodate the overnight kick-off times in North America, organisers there have also introduced family-friendly daytime replay screenings.
Fans looking for a different vibe can head to the Granton waterfront, where the Pitt streetfood market is also getting in on the action. National fanzone operators 4theFans are taking over the community hub to create a FanPark experience, featuring live DJs, massive screens, and an array of independent food and drink vendors.
Meanwhile, in the west of the city, Murrayfield Ice Arena has also been confirmed as a fanzone location.
Anticipation is already at fever pitch across the country as fans prepare to watch Scotland’s men at a World Cup for the first time since 1998.
Steve Clarke’s side will be hoping to make history by extending their stay in the tournament beyond the first stage, with up to three teams potentially qualifying from Group C.
