If you’re looking for some friends to watch England take on Croatia with, why not hang with the ultimate soccer fan, David Beckham?
Beckham is hosting a World Cup watch party this afternoon at the Wharf. From noon to 7 p.m., the waterfront food and entertainment venue will be open for this free event.
Fans hoping to get a glimpse of Beckham shouldn’t be disappointed. According to a rep, the soccer superstar will be front and center to interact with fans and watch the game. (No real mystery who he’s rooting for.)
Beckham, of course, is in Miami to promote his proposed soccer stadium complex and park at Melreese Country Club. Miami Freedom Park, as it would be known, would encompass a green space, a Major League Soccer franchise, and a retail component.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $18,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
The game starts at 2 p.m. and will be shown on large screens set up throughout the venue. Kids and dogs are welcome all afternoon.
In addition, the Wharf’s dining options will be open today, serving food for hungry fans. Eateries at the Wharf include La Santa Taqueria, Cracked by Chef Adrianne, Spris Artisan Pizza, Garcia’s Seafood, OG Ceviche by Douglas Rodriguez, Mojo Donuts, and Sweet Melody Ice Cream.
World Cup Watch Party. Noon to 7 p.m. Wednesday, July 11, at the Wharf, 114 SW North River Dr., Miami; 305-906-4000; wharfmiami.com. Admission is free with RSVP at davidbeckhamwatchparty.eventbrite.com.
