The FIFA World Cup 2026

Events 31 Dec 2025

As anticipation builds for the FIFA World Cup 2026, England’s first-round fixtures have been confirmed, and we will be showing all of England’s group matches live. For those looking to enjoy the tournament in a more refined setting, our private dining rooms offer an elegant and exclusive way to watch the action.

A private dining room provides the perfect balance of atmosphere and comfort. With your own dedicated space, attentive service, and live coverage on screen, it’s an ideal choice for hosting clients, entertaining friends, or marking a special occasion during one of the biggest sporting events in the world.

England open their World Cup campaign on Wednesday 17 June 2026, taking on Croatia with a 21:00 (GMT) kick-off at Dallas Stadium. The group stage continues on Tuesday 23 June 2026, with England facing Ghana at 21:00 (GMT), live from Boston Stadium.

The final group match takes place on Saturday 27 June 2026, as England meet Panama with a 22:00 (GMT) kick-off at the New York / New Jersey Stadium. With qualification potentially at stake, this fixture is set to be a standout evening of the tournament.

Our private dining rooms are available to reserve for all England group games and offer a tailored experience, combining fine food, carefully selected drinks, and World Cup football in a discreet and stylish environment. Availability is limited, and early booking is strongly advised.
