Brisbane, it’s time to get behind the green and gold. Gather your mates and cheer on the Socceroos at the World Cup Live Site at South Bank’s Cultural Forecourt, located beside the Brisbane Sign.

The Live Site will screen every Socceroos match, along with select matches scheduled immediately before and after Australian fixtures. Entry is free, with the site operating on a first come, first served basis. Fans are encouraged to arrive early to allow time for security screening and to secure a spot before capacity is reached.

The licensed site will feature food trucks, a bar, coffee vendors and a big-screen viewing experience, with security and bag checks in place prior to entry. Fans are encouraged to register their interest online to assist with event planning and attendance forecasting.
