Lancashire's Biggest Indoor World Cup Fan Zone Returns to Blackpool's Winter Gardens

This summer, Lancashire's biggest indoor World Cup Fan Zone is returning to Olympia at Winter Gardens Blackpool as England begin the quest for glory at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Following an incredible atmosphere during previous tournaments, fans will once again be able to experience every moment on the big screen alongside hundreds of fellow supporters in one of the UK's most unique live event spaces.

Tickets are now on sale for England's opening two group matches:

•      England v Croatia – Wednesday 17 June

•      England v Ghana – Tuesday 23 June

As the tournament progresses, the Fan Zone will continue for every England knockout match* as the nation dares to dream of World Cup success.

A venue host, giant screen, immersive sound, live entertainment, food and drink offers and an unforgettable matchday atmosphere in the heart of Blackpool.

Whether you're joining friends, family, colleagues or fellow football fans, the Winter Gardens Fan Zone is set to once again become the home of England’s Football this summer.

Tickets start at £8.45 for general admission and £13.45 for VIP. Seats can be selected and food and drink pre-ordered in advance.

Anthony Williams, Head of Programming for Blackpool Tourism said: “The Winter Gardens Fan Zone has been the place to be during previous tournaments – the atmosphere is just electric.

“There is genuinely nothing quite like watching England with hundreds of passionate fans on a massive screen in such an iconic venue. It is the best place in in the North West to watch the games and this summer promises to be bigger and better than ever. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back.”
