Football on the waves: Seattle is building a floating fan zone for the World Cup.

Football on the waves: Seattle is building a floating fan zone for the World Cup In preparation for the World Cup, American organizers have unveiled an ambitious infrastructure project. For two years, efforts have been made to build a special barge equipped with a mini-pitch and a multimedia screen. The main idea is to give fans the opportunity to watch the matches from a panoramic view of Elliot Bay. The floating arena will have a capacity of 500 people. Access to the arena will be limited by tickets. As planned, free fan zones will be set up right within the city limits. It’s hoped that this new tradition of watching matches from a floating arena will become a local tradition. Otherwise, what’s the point of such a large-scale engineering project?
