Absolutely.

All Elephant & Castle locations across Canada and the U.S. will be showing the World Cup 2026, live and loud. If there’s a World Cup match on, we’ll have it on.

Yes — every match, from the opening kick to the final whistle, will be shown live throughout the tournament.

No bookings here. This is a pub, not a dinner party.

All seating is first come, first served, so arrive early, grab a pint, and settle in for the World Cup action.

For big matches, knockout games, and host-city fixtures, we recommend arriving 60–90 minutes before kickoff.

Earlier if you’re particular about your seat. Earlier still if your mates tend to wander.

Yes.

We are guaranteeing sound for all World Cup matches at every Elephant & Castle location.

Yes. Football waits for no one, and neither do we.

Many locations will open earlier or stay open later to make sure fans can watch matches live, including early kickoffs and late-night games.

We’re proud to have locations in Toronto, Seattle, and Boston — all official host cities for World Cup matches in 2026.

Of course.

Whether the match is happening down the road or across the continent, every Elephant & Castle will be showing every World Cup match live.

Yes. Watching the World Cup is hungry work.

All locations will be serving food and drinks during matches, with menus designed for matchday viewing.

Any specials will vary by location.

We will indeed.

You’ll find extra TVs, projectors, and upgraded viewing setups, so you won’t miss a thing, even if someone tall insists on standing in front of you.

Absolutely. Football’s better with friends.

Just remember it’s first come, first served, so the bigger the group, the earlier you should arrive.

That’s when it gets lively.

Many locations will offer standing-room viewing, which, let’s be honest, is how proper football is meant to be watched.

Some locations will have limited-run jerseys and supporter gear during the World Cup.

Once they’re gone, they’re gone — a bit like your team’s chances after a penalty shootout.

Daytime matches are generally family-friendly, though evening games may have a louder, more spirited pub atmosphere.

Use your judgement, and maybe bring earplugs for the kids.

No. Elephant & Castle is not affiliated with or endorsed by the tournament organizers.

We’re just very good at showing World Cup football in a proper pub.
