Get yourself down to Definitely Maybe Bar Afflecks on Wednesday 17 June 2026 for a free World Cup screening that'll have you on the edge of your seat. This is proper football viewing territory where you can soak up the atmosphere with fellow fans without spending a penny on entry – just arrive early if you want a decent spot, as these screenings pull in a decent crowd. It's the perfect excuse to catch the action live on the big screen with people who actually care about the beautiful game.
Afflecks in Manchester's Northern Quarter is an iconic spot that's been buzzing with culture and community vibes for years. Definitely Maybe Bar sits right in the heart of this creative neighbourhood, surrounded by independent shops, street art, and that characteristic Manchester edge. The venue's got real character – it's the kind of place where locals gather, so you'll be watching with genuine football supporters rather than randoms.
Kick-off's at 19:30, so head over in good time to grab a spot and maybe grab a drink (18+ only, so bring your ID). The Northern Quarter's easy to reach via tram or bus, and there's plenty of street parking nearby if you're driving. Pro tip: get there at least 20 minutes early for a World Cup match, bring some mates, and settle in for what should be a cracking night of football in one of Manchester's best neighbourhoods.
