Alcobendas, San Sebastián de los Reyes, Colmenar Viejo, Paracuellos de Jarama, and Tres Cantos have organized outdoor broadcasts for the 2026 World Cup semi-final between Spain and France on Tuesday, July 14.

Municipalities in the north of the region will offer giant screens, free entry, and a festive atmosphere to follow the decisive sporting encounter. The initiative aims to bring residents together to enjoy the match as a community.
In Alcobendas, the event will take place outside the Ciudad Deportiva Valdelasfuentes. The screening will start at 9:00 PM, with free access from 8:00 PM. The event will include face painting for children, a food and drink bar, and raffles.
San Sebastián de los Reyes will host the broadcast in the Plaza de la Constitución. The festive atmosphere will kick off at 7:00 PM with musical entertainment before the match, under the slogan "San Sebastián de los Reyes with Spain".
Colmenar Viejo has chosen a unique venue: the Plaza de Toros de La Corredera. It will feature a nine-meter screen, one of the largest in the area, for the match projection.
In Paracuellos de Jarama, the broadcast will be held at the Polideportivo (Sports Center), with access via La Paz street. The match will be shown on a large screen for all attendees.
Tres Cantos will host its football celebration at the Recinto Ferial (Fairgrounds). In addition to the giant screen, the organization promises gifts and music during the evening.
The common initiative across these five municipalities is to promote neighborhood coexistence through sports, offering free and accessible meeting points for the whole family, regardless of the match's outcome.
