The Social 20/20 will join the screenings at Koramangala, Church Street, and Whitefield, Social's three locations, featuring eight carefully selected LLIITs dressed in vibrant avatars that reflect the colours of your favourite team. The very crimson, Berry Bangalore should be your LLIIT for all the match screenings if you are an RCB fan. Sunny Chennai is now a vibrant yellow, while Kolkata Nightcap is transformed into a purple beauty. Get your jerseys on, find the nearest Social, get your LLIIT (cocktails cost INR 550 and above), and cheer for your side!

Tropika provides an immersive environment where the excitement of the tournament comes to life on enormous screens, perfect for cheering with friends, discussing match strategies, or just enjoying the thrill of the game.

To cap it all off, sweet treats like Dot Ball Doughnuts and Catchy Carrot Halwa with Ice Cream are the perfect way to end the experience.

Chin Lung

Chin Lung becomes the ideal spot for cricket fans to hang out on match days thanks to its laid-back brewery atmosphere, popular comfort meals, and freshly made craft brews. Just picture it: giant TVs, raucous cheers, pitchers playing continuously, and dishes of delectable bar food going around. You may find one of their many locations around Bangalore, making it an ideal gathering place for friends and family to enjoy a thrilling evening of cricket.

RCB Bar & Cafe

You can watch every RCB home and away game, along with every other Indian Premier League game this season, at Bangalore's RCB Bar & Cafe. Here's to hoping Ee Sala Cup Namde. However, RCB Bar will show more than just cricket in Bangalore. It truly is an experience! 

Arbor Brewing Cafe

In addition to airing every football match from the Indian Super League, they also carry every Premier League match, every cricket match (from the Indian Premier League to international matches), and even the rare tennis match (usually a Grand Slam). There are a number of televisions set up around the restaurant, but our favorite is the outdoor screen that pairs with the communal table. Here you can watch these games live on the big screen, so get those cold beers.

Gawky Goose

As the upcoming Indian Premier League season gets underway, Gawky Goose will be showing every single match. However, in addition to it, they frequently air other sports, such as Formula 1 and football. Be sure to take a look at the summer menu since it will be available all season long.

Dave & Buster’s

For all your match-day viewing needs, go no farther than Dave & Buster's, an American arcade gaming and sports pub, boasting a gigantic 40-foot 4K screen with surround sound and other TVs scattered throughout the establishment. You may complement your match viewing with some tasty bar snacks and cocktails, or you can have limitless beer for INR 999 for 90 minutes if that's more your speed. The arcade is open for both innings, so you can play Godzilla and Asphalt there.
