But the real trend of this 2026 edition lies in the new hybrid living spaces: gourmet markets, cultural sites, and trendy venues are taking over the soccer ball.
People come not only for the match, but also to extend the post-game fun with top-notch street food, DJ sets, quizzes, and fun activities for families or friends.
