fan zone
Spectator gathering area
A fan zone is a designated area, typically outdoors, where spectators gather to watch sporting events on large screens.
Fan zones appear during major tournaments like the World Cup or Olympics, offering food, entertainment, and communal viewing when stadium tickets are unavailable or unaffordable: We watched the match from the fan zone in the city center.
