Scotland is taking over the PVD Fan Zone with a vibrant celebration of all things Scottish. Visitors can stop by the Scotland kiosk for interactive photo opportunities and tourism inspiration, while enjoying live performances and a taste of Scotland across the Fan Zone, from Scotch whisky to fresh Scottish salmon at Track15. Don’t miss the 6pm live screening of Scotland vs. Brazil on the big screen.
The PVD FanZone is free to enter and will be buzzing with activity to watch the matches on the big screen, alongside live performances, interactive games, and a rotating lineup of local food trucks, beer, wine and spirits garden.
