World Cup Viewing Parties & Finale Brunch at Pythian Market in Downtown New Orleans

Pythian Market, the recently-opened food collective located in the historic Pythian Temple in New Orleans’ Central Business District, is celebrating World Cup 2018 with an array of specials, contests, parties and more. 

It’s only fitting that the new multi-vendor dining destination will serve as a hub to watch the Russia-based soccer competition, as the market’s muralist and local New Orleanian Brandon ‘Bmike’ Odums was just tapped by national sports website Bleacher Report to turn the Lafitte Greenway into a painted mural of French phenomenon Paul Pogba of Manchester United.

With TVs throughout the space, guests can catch the action from morning til’ night.  From 7AM during morning games, Bar 1908 will begin serving beer and Frozen White Russians and vendors such as La Cocinita, Fete au Fete, Squeezed, Roustabout and Central City BBQ will offer breakfast treats.  

Themed cocktails, entertainment and contests will run the gamut throughout the month. Each game, guests will have a chance to win prizes by entering raffles and guessing the winning team.  Those wearing soccer team jerseys will enjoy Happy Hour prices all-game-long, and when each game ends – fans wearing the winning team jerseys will receive fabulous drink specials.  

The soccer competition will culminate with a Finale Brunch Party on Sunday, July 15th at 10AM, with giveaways, cocktail specials, prizes and more.

Pythian Market will host World Cup 2018 from June 14 – July 15, 2018.  During games, Bar 1908 and some of the market’s vendors will begin serving at 7AM. Located at 234 Loyola Avenue in New Orleans, regular hours of operation will be Sunday – Thursday 7AM – 9PM; Friday and Saturday 7AM – 10PM.  For additional information, please visit www.pythianmarket.com.
