The FIFA World Cup arrives in North Texas in less than two weeks, drawing more than a million visitors alongside legions of local fans eager to celebrate soccer’s biggest event. But for many, that celebration won’t include a seat inside the stadium. 

For some, the tickets are too pricey, and others just might want to avoid the headache of traffic and overly large crowds altogether. Regardless of the reason, nonticketholders don’t have to miss out on the fun. 

Several bars, restaurants and entertainment venues in Dallas-Fort Worth will be streaming the matches and hosting watch parties all summer long.
