Fans across the globe can watch key matches of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, including the highly anticipated clash between India and Pakistan, at live fan parks from New York City to New Delhi. The International Cricket Council (ICC) has announced a record-setting 16 fan parks across five countries, broadcasting 23 World Cup matches, making this the most extensive community engagement in ICC World Cup history.
These fan parks will offer live entertainment with DJs, food and drink vendors, cricket ambassadors, and family activities, creating an unmissable experience for cricket fans worldwide, according to an ICC media release.
One of the standout venues is the Oculus World Trade Center in New York City, which will host fan parks showing 18 matches on 10 different dates, including the highly anticipated final on June 29. New Yorkers will also have the chance to watch the World Cup opener between the USA and Canada on June 1, as well as the Australia vs. England match on June 8 and the India vs. Pakistan clash on June 9.
Ten different fan parks will broadcast the Group A game between India and Pakistan, including Cedar Creek Park in Seaford, New York, hosted by Nassau County, the Indira Gandhi Indoor Arena in New Delhi, India, and the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Pakistan. Fans in other US locations can enjoy the matches at Epic Central in Grand Prairie, Texas, and Broward County Stadium in Florida.
Outside the USA, the DP World Wanderers Stadium in South Africa will show the Proteas’ first match against Sri Lanka on June 3, as well as the India vs. Pakistan game. Birmingham’s Edgbaston Cricket Stadium will also screen the June 9 fixture.
The ICC’s broadcast partners in each region will support all fan parks by providing live feeds.
