Province of Almería Installs Screens for the World Cup Final Between Spain and Argentina
The province of Almería is preparing a special structure for the World Cup final, which will be contested between the Spanish and Argentine national teams. The match, taking place at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, will be broadcast on screens installed in public spaces in at least 30 municipalities in the region.
What's Happening
The initiative aims to bring fans together to watch Spain’s attempt to win its second world title, 16 years after their victory in South Africa. The official broadcast will begin at 9 PM on Sunday, July 19, 2026. Various locations such as squares, parks, cultural centers, promenades, and even bullrings and schools have been adapted to function as outdoor stands.
Among the municipalities that confirmed the installation of screens are Almería capital, Abla, Adra, Huércal de Almería, Vícar, Berja, Dalías, Roquetas de Mar, Benahadux, Pechina, Tabernas, Albox, Olula del Río, Tíjola, Huércal-Overa, Antas, Vera, Viator, Cantoria and Pulpí.
What to Expect
The event takes on a special significance for the region due to the presence of Álex Baena, a player from Roquetas de Mar who is part of the Spanish national team. The athlete, who will turn 25 shortly after the match, has been gaining prominence in the team throughout the tournament. There are expectations of significant public mobilization at the public spaces designated by local city councils. For those planning to attend, it is recommended to check the official social media accounts of each Municipality, where specific information about the exact locations of screens in each municipality has been published.
