If you’re a Londoner, no matter what team you support or even, shock horror, if you’re not into the footie at all, there was no escaping the absolute scenes across the city when Arsenal secured the Premier League title earlier this week.
With one trophy already in the bag, the Gunners are now setting their sights on Europe. The Champions League final will take place on 30 May 2026 at 5pm, where Arsenal take on Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).
Here are all the places where you can catch all the action, grab a few pints and soak up the team spirit.
The Tollington Arms
This North London boozer has become an institution, having become a home to Arsenal fans over the years. It was even voted Best Arsenal Pub for the 2014/15 season, and can be found to be packed on match days. Even Arsenal legend Wrighty was spotted there this week.
For big games, the Tollington usually operates a ticketing system on a first-come, first-served basis, so it’s best to arrive early to secure your spot for the game.
The Gunners Pub
As the name suggests, this iconic pub is a shrine to the club’s history, complete with vintage kits on display, its own Gunners Lager and photographs of legendary players. It also has a nice-sized pub garden that has screens to watch every second of the action.
Much like the Tollington Arms, this pub operates on a ticketed basis for big games, which can usually be purchased for £10 and include a free drink. They also work on a first-come, first-served basis.
Black Eats Fest
This event, which is a celebration of food, culture and community runs for three days, with the final day falling on the 31 May. The festival have announced they will be screening the final and are encouraging people to pull up in their Arsenal shirts.
So if you want to watch the game while also enjoying food from the best Black-owned eats, grab your ticket now.
Between Bridges
This venue on the South Bank is opening the full venue for this one. Their massive outdoor screens mean you’ll be watching every detail of the game in high definition. Doors open from 3pm, so it’s best to arrive in good time if you want a premium spot.
Flat Iron Square
Known as one of the best spots in London to watch live sports, Flat Iron Square provides a lively atmosphere to watch the final. The place is decked out with 20 huge screens, and great food options so you can tuck into everything from Neopolitan pizzas to buttermilk fried chicken.
You can book your table here.
The Faltering Fullback
This Irish pub in Finsbury park is another favourite among Arsenal fans, so the perfect place to go if you want to be surrounded by local fans. It’s a family run pub serving Thai food ( and good craic!) seven days a week. The pub runs on a first-come, first served basis so, again, it’s worth arriving early to secure a good spot.
