@thecolumbusreport6: ⚽ Columbus Doesn't Have a World Cup Match — So It's Throwing Its Own 📧 Comment "REPORT" for more insights on what's happening across Central Ohio. The biggest World Cup in history just kicked off — 48 teams, a month of soccer, and Columbus decided showing up at home wasn't enough. Here's what's actually happening. The Columbus Crew is anchoring four major Team USA watch parties, and they don't waste any time getting started. Bridge Park in Dublin for USA vs. Paraguay. Columbus Commons downtown for USA vs. Australia. Land-Grant Brewing in Franklinton for USA vs. Turkey. And on July 19, the Crew is taking over its own stadium plaza for the World Cup final. That's just the headline lineup. The Crew's "Summer of Soccer" has 18 bars and restaurants hosting watch parties for every other nation, running all the way through the semifinals. Land-Grant has 17 screens with USA games on a massive outdoor screen. Parlay downtown has more than 100 TVs running every match at once. Easton and Fado are closing down a street for a live-music watch party. Breweries from Pickerington to Whitehall are all in too. Here's why this is bigger than soccer. This is what makes a city feel like a city. Columbus is a genuine soccer town with a Crew stadium it's proud of, and watching an entire region rally around something this big is exactly the energy that makes people want to live here, not just visit. So really, there's only one question left. Who are you cheering for? Full schedule: columbuscrew.com/summer-of-soccer Source: Columbus Dispatch Gagan Columbus, Ohio REALTOR.
