Birmingham's Utilita Arena is set to transform into Europe's largest World Cup fan zone, accommodating up to 10,000 supporters, but only if England triumph over Mexico in the Round of 16 match on Monday, July 6, 2026. The fan zone will feature live coverage on big screens straight from Miami, where the quarter-final will be played.
Event organisers and legacy
4TheFans, the brand behind the successful Villa Park fan zone during Aston Villa's Europa League final victory against SC Freiburg, is organising the event. The company promises appearances from England football legends, match analysis, banter, DJs, and special effects to celebrate every goal.
Ticket details and guarantees
Tickets are already on sale from just £7.50, which includes a free beer and a money-back guarantee if England fail to progress past Mexico. Premium tickets, offering seats with tables on the arena floor, are available from £26. The quarter-final match kicks off at 10pm, a more fan-friendly time compared to the 1am start of the Round of 16 game.
Alternative viewing options
For those unable to secure tickets, many local pubs and bars across Birmingham will also screen the match, with a separate list of venues available online. England fans are now pinning their hopes on victory against Mexico to bring the fan zone to life.
