Where to Watch the World Cup 2026 in Vancouver

Big screens, a Moroccan feast, and full match day energy in the heart of Yaletown, minutes from BC Place.

The FIFA World Cup 2026 runs from June 11 to July 19, and Vancouver hosted seven matches at BC Place through July 7. If you are deciding where to watch the rest of the World Cup in Vancouver and want more than a crowded sports bar, Moltaqa offers big screens, a warm Yaletown room, and a proper Moroccan table to share while the remaining matches play.

Our Match Day Experience is built for fans who love football and food. You get a guaranteed seat in front of the screens and a generous Moroccan platter. Seating is limited and the big fixtures fill fast, so the smart move is to book your table early.

Vancouver's Home of Moroccan Football

Morocco's remarkable World Cup run captivated Vancouver all summer, ending in a hard fought quarterfinal against France on July 9 that closed out the Atlas Lions' campaign 2 to 0. It was a fitting stage for a team that had already beaten the odds again and again.

The tournament's Moroccan flavour lives on at Moltaqa no matter who is left in the bracket. Join us for a match day atmosphere filled with authentic Moroccan cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and every remaining match live on the big screen. As noted by Vancouver Is Awesome, Moltaqa has already been highlighted as a natural gathering place for football fans in Vancouver. Reserve your table for the Semifinals or the Final before it fills up.
