Worldcast Live is set to transform the Newark Liberty International Airport Marriott into a vibrant hub for soccer fans on July 19, hosting a World Soccer Final Watch Party that promises more than just a game on screen.
A Festival of Football and Fellowship
The celebration will feature LED wall viewing rooms, live DJ sets, a Sip & Paint station, oversized lawn games, retro video‑game stations, a curated lineup of vendors, and a full menu of food and drinks served by the hotel. Attendees are invited to embrace the “Follow Me” theme, moving with the energy, music, and rhythm of the match.
Peter Lewis, chief executive of Worldcast Live, explained that the gathering is about more than cheering for a team; it is about bringing people together through sport, music, culture, and community giving, while also supporting local businesses.
A portion of every ticket sold will be donated to MEND, the Hunger Relief Network of Essex County, and guests are encouraged to contribute non‑perishable food items at the venue. The event is backed by a coalition of local partners including the Gateway Chamber of Commerce, Kick It in Newark, T3 Creative Collective, LLC, and the Newark Alliance, underscoring its roots in the New Jersey community.
Fans can pre‑order the Official New Jersey Soccer Kit on site, and all tickets and additional details are available through Eventbrite. While the watch party is independent and not affiliated with FIFA, its organizers say the collaboration with local sponsors amplifies the spirit of the tournament.
